      yes, u need more libraries loaded into the container…
      /lib/arm-linux-gnueabihf/libdbus-1.so.3

      This library is already installed.

          not the right one

          I installed this one:

          root@local-mm:/# apt install libdbus-1-3
          Reading package lists... Done
          Building dependency tree
          Reading state information... Done
          libdbus-1-3 is already the newest version (1.10.28-0+deb9u1).

            @lpt2007 i don’t know… the error says its not right.
            I don’t know how to solve it…

            again, I would go look at that other docker container which does what you want (maybe)

              i don’t really understand, as BOTH approaches will require some browser to be running ON the HASSOS image ALL THE TIME… (somewhere)

              Container with mm must connect to host display. I made something simmilar with kodi media center in docker container.

                  Maybe I can try to made ha addon with chrome in kiosk mode to see where the problem is?

                    Thanks for your time @sdetweil :)

                    I will first try docker container from link you posted before. One of scenario is about:

                    Scenario 2: Using docker on the raspberry pi and starting the magicmirror on the screen of the pi.
                    

                    I will post results back.

                      Again without success :(

                        @lpt2007 yeh, its a tricky, not really supported approach
                        I personally wouldn’t even try it
