      @madscientist Switched to dtoverlay=vc4-fkms-v3d and everything seems to work fine. MM runs at a few % CPU so it looks very good, maybe even lower than with OpenGL, but I haven’t gone into details.

      What command do you use to check temperature?

          FYI, in a healthy state, my Pi runs at 66 degrees. With the misconfigured GL drivers, it reaches 85 degrees. So 63 is perfectly fine.

              @michmich why does electron have to be updated?
              With electron 2.0.0 my Pi runs at 75 degrees. (I have switched to “toverlay=vc4-fkms-v3d”.)
              Now i have downgraded electron to version 1.4.15.
              My pi runs now at 49 degrees and the MagicMirror Software is faster.

              I use Raspberry Pi 3 with cooling fins!
