      Yes, pm2.

      Here is that file.

      #!/bin/bash

      This file is still here to keep PM2 working on older installations.

      cd ~/MagicMirror
      DISPLAY=:0 npm start

        @atwist yes, that is the file, should have started in default mode

        there is an updated version

        can you replace all the lines of text there with this

        #!/bin/bash
        cd ~/MagicMirror
        
        if [ $(ps -ef | grep -v grep | grep -i -e xway -e labwc | wc -l) -ne 0 ]; then 
           # if WAYLAND_DISPLAYis set, use it, else set to -0
           export WAYLAND_DISPLAY=${WAYLAND_DISPLAY:=wayland-0}
           npm run start:wayland
        else
           DISPLAY=:0 npm start
        fi

              Yes, that starts everything and gets me running like normal. Thanks!

              So how do I get it to run on reboot moving forward?
