      I had the same issue. I changed dtoverlay=vc4-kms-v3d to dtoverlay=vc4-fkms-v3d and was able to boot up again.

        That doesn’t work for me, MM boots to a few lines about blocks, then nothing else.

          Did you try the rasps-config tool to configure the GL driver?

            No, because if that kills it, I don’t know how to bring it back - what file to edit etc…?

              @richard238 It just modifies the config.txt for you in a save way. There is a bigger chance of you killing your pi doing it manually than using the config tool.

                Ok, when I get time, I’ll create a backup of the MM SD card first, and then try the GUI config tool.

                Thanks.

                    Done through raspi-config, seems ok, boots and runs fine.

                    sudo vcgencmd measure_temp
                    

                    shows 56.9C
