    I can’t access my mirror remotely anymore. Will I need to format my sd card and try again?

      I am having the same issues and tried alot right now.

      Tried the
      dtoverlay=vc4-fkms-v3d as well as dtoverlay=vc4-kms-v3d as well as deleting that phrase

      I downgraded electron to npm install electron@1.4.15 since i found that helped in the V2.30 problems.

      I cant currently show the log from starting MagicMirror since i remotly access it and the MM just goes “all black” over the remote-access-page and I cant close it.

      I really just want to downgrad the MM to 2.3 since it worked absolutly fine with it…

      Additional software I use is MM-PIR

              One way is to go to that link I gave you and download the version you want and install it manually.

                Bumping this because I’m also having issues. A lot of time on google says it’s not just a MagicMirror issue, but lots of people have problems with the OpenGL drivers. My screen is blanking after some time no matter what, but I also found the hard way that it messes with tvservice (like the Remote Control module uses) – turning my HDMI off straight up insta-shut down my pi! Gonna have to keep researching for sure.

                  I just updated and this is shown at the end of the install.

                  
                  MagicMirror installation successful!
                  
                  > magicmirror@2.4.1 install-fonts /home/pi/MagicMirror
                  > cd fonts && npm install
                  
                  npm WARN postcss-html@0.12.0 requires a peer of postcss-less@>=1.1.0 but none was installed.
                  npm WARN postcss-html@0.12.0 requires a peer of postcss-scss@>=1.0.0 but none was installed.
                  npm WARN postcss-html@0.12.0 requires a peer of sugarss@>=1.0.0 but none was installed.

                  pi@raspberrypi:~/MagicMirror $
                  
                  

                  I applied

                  dtoverlay=vc4-kms-v3d
                  

                  to the config.txt ( also tried with fkms)

                  Reboot and I get a black screen.

                  When I remove dtoverlay=vc4-kms-v3d then the mirror boots up.
                  Any suggestions?
