    @eckonator

    Have you disabled your screensaver? The display will turn on and off but the screensaver won’t.

          I installed xscreensaver but to Problem exists again. I found out that it must be a problem from lightdm.

          After my screen was black again i tried to connect by vnc but the port was not reachable.

          So i did this:

          sudo service lightdm restart

          And after that vnc was working again and my mirror was displayed on my display.

          Now i have to find out why lightdm stops working after some time. Any idea howto debug?

            I’m running into the exact same issue “eckonator”. I tried the ‘sudo service lightdm restart’ but it still wakes to a black screen after a few hours. Have you had success or did you have to try something different?

              Here is my working vcgencmd-Replacment:

              https://pastebin.com/5n8zqL5a

              Just copy&paste this into this file:
              /home/pi/MagicMirror/modules/MMM-PIR-Sensor/node_helper.js
              and replace the whole existing code there.

              After that the Problem was fixed for me.
