        I did the update, it didn’t work afterwards.
        Then I’ve tried sudo apt-get update / upgrade, still no luck
        Today I renamed MagicMirror to .org and did a new install of MagicMirror, same result.

        So now I’m out of options…

              I think I take a new SD Card and do an install from scratch to see what happens.

                I took a new SD Card and installed everything from fresh.
                Some information:

                cat /sys/firmware/devicetree/base/model
                Raspberry Pi 4 Model B Rev 1.4
                
                cat /etc/debian_version
                12.10
                
                cat /etc/os-release
                PRETTY_NAME="Debian GNU/Linux 12 (bookworm)"
                NAME="Debian GNU/Linux"
                VERSION_ID="12"
                VERSION="12 (bookworm)"
                VERSION_CODENAME=bookworm
                ID=debian
                HOME_URL="https://www.debian.org/"
                SUPPORT_URL="https://www.debian.org/support"
                BUG_REPORT_URL="https://bugs.debian.org/"
                
                uname -a
                Linux MagicMirror 6.12.20+rpt-rpi-v8 #1 SMP PREEMPT Debian 1:6.12.20-1+rpt1~bpo12+1 (2025-03-19) aarch64 GNU/Linux
                
                node -v
                v22.14.0
                
                npm -v
                10.9.2
                

                When I start MagicMirror with “npm run start”, then everything seems to work.

                pm2 start MagicMirror works and seems to start MagicMirror in Wayland

                npm run start:wayland still gives an error

                pi@MagicMirror:~/MagicMirror $ npm run start:wayland

                  @htilburgs could be

                  when you open a terminal session and do

                  env

                  is the WAYLAND_DISPLAY variable set?

                  that code you referenced says use WAYLAND_DISPLAY, and if not set, set it to wayland-1

                      @htilburgs in terminal window no spaces between things…
                      this is like the windows set var=value (without the set prefix)

                      WAYLAND_DISPLAY=wayland-x

                      x is a number from 0 to …

                      we thought wayand-1 was default

                        WAYLAND_DISPLAY=wayland-x

                        In terminal window I typed WAYLAND_DISPLAY=wayland-1
                        Then I did “env”, nothing changed.
                        npm run start:wayland still gives the same error.

                          you should have seen this in the env output

                          but our code says IF NOT SET, use wayland-1
                          which looks like an error

                          so if you set it to the same value it won’t improve

                          I’d try wayland-0

                          maybe the wlr_randr command will tell you what it is?

                            @sdetweil Maybe I don’t understand.
                            WAYLAND_DISPLAY=wayland-0 still gives wayland-1 in npm run start:wayland.

                            wlr_randr gives

                            pi@MagicMirror:~/MagicMirror $ wlr_randr
                            -bash: wlr_randr: command not found
                            

                            By the way, my PIR command do work

                            onCommand: "WAYLAND_DISPLAY='wayland-1' wlr-randr --output HDMI-A-1 --on --transform 270 --mode='1920x1080'",
                            
                            offCommand: "WAYLAND_DISPLAY='wayland-1' wlr-randr --output HDMI-A-1 --off",

                                    You’re correct, but then I get

                                      this is correct on console window.
                                      console didn’t know about display unless you’re telling him what display to use.
                                      As far as I know you can use

                                      DISPLAY=:0.0 
                                      

                                      as a hint upfront your terminal command.
                                      At least for xrandr this works and is necessary.

                                      DISPLAY=:0.0 xrandr --output HDMI-1 --off
                                      

                                      is my xrandr console equivalent for the “normal” command

                                      xrandr --output HDMI-1 --off
                                      

                                      I’m not THAT sure if this is true for wlr-randr .
                                      (Because wlr-randr do have this environment variable “WAYLAND_DISPLAY” which is not the case for xrandr…)

                                      HTH & regards,
                                      Ralf
