MMM-CalendarExt2: Black Screen

sdetweil

@jack819 that’s my script. and what I recommend. it does everything

it will install pm2 for you

and u used the pi is, full version to flash the sd card?

what do you do after the script finishes?

jack819

@sdetweil Correct. Used the Pi OS full version. Run the script then once it is done setup for autostart and turn off screensaver. After that I just installed modules.

sdetweil

@jack819 the script does pm2 and screensaver already

can u show me ~/install.log

jack819

@sdetweil Correct. I do that in the script.

When I type that command into terminal, it says permission denied.

sdetweil

@jack819 show me, means dump , edit, … use some command

to type out the file, use the cat command (cat = type in windows)
to edit the file use nano

nano ~/install.log
