OrangePi Zero 2 installation issues
-
Yes chromium seems to work. I installed vnc server since this SBC is in my mirror and I have now way to attach a mouse.
-
Not sure what you are trying to say by pointing me to the 9to5 article. Is there something relevant in there i missed? :)

I just played around with the DISPLAY parameter and when setting:
michel@orangepizero2:~/MagicMirror$ export DISPLAY=:1 michel@orangepizero2:~/MagicMirror$ npm start > magicmirror@2.17.1 start /home/michel/MagicMirror > DISPLAY="${DISPLAY:=:0}" ./node_modules/.bin/electron js/electron.js [11.12.2021 09:15.21.920] [LOG] Starting MagicMirror: v2.17.1 [11.12.2021 09:15.21.937] [LOG] Loading config ...

So this seems to be related to the output somehow.

@michelw no, but I can try armbian on my pi now
-
@michelw and when u are using vnc, the monitor is showing the desktop, right?
-
Ah right.
I would like to thank you very much for all your help.
Went looking for a second hand Raspberry PI 4B 1G today and found one. A little expensive but at least I have something more compatible now so I at least can get the magicmirror running :)
Still willing to help out (testing) if you would like to make your script Orange Pi Zero 2 compatible. That might help others.

@sdetweil said in OrangePi Zero 2 installation issues:
@michelw and when u are using vnc, the monitor is showing the desktop, right?
Yes, that is correct.
-
@michelw it’s not the script, it’s the assumption by the mm startup, defined in package.json), that DISPLAY needs to be :0 if not already set.
-
which image did u try?
debian or Ubuntu?
-
I tried all of them, the latest I tried was : Orangepizero2_2.1.6_debian_buster_desktop_linux4.9.170.img
