@sdetweil said in Screen switching to blank:

Is there no end to your wizardry? :thumbsup:

[micksel]

@sdetweil

I run your script file,
Got the following output in the logfile:

xscreensaver running
xscreensaver already disabled

and the screen is still blank

[sdetweil]

@micksel does the screen go blank when not running MagicMirror?

[micksel]

@sdetweil I don’t now MagicMirror is set to start auto…

[sdetweil]

@micksel if u wiggle the mouse, or hit enter on a keyboard, does the screen come back?

If not, hit alt-spacebar, n
To minimize mm.

The pm2 logs

[micksel]

@sdetweil No it don’t come back seems that it the magicmirror it self that goes blank

I can see one intresting error:
0|MagicMir | [935:0828/010903.621134:FATAL:memory_linux.cc(36)] Out of memory.
