      Thank you, Sam, for your reply!

      MagicMirror installed successfully with the --only=prod command, the error code about chromedriver has disappeared.

      However, I am still getting the same error message (errno 126) when trying to npm start the program, in fact, the exact same error message.

      I am really curious about why I am getting a permission error, as I’ve installed it without any privileges.

          @sdetweil Hi Sam,

          Thank you very much for your reply.

          I’ve tried earasing the node_modules folder, but still no luck. Exact same error message.

            @someone123416 back in your original post, you said
            “I’ve hooked up my rpi directly to a display via hdmi n everything works fine”

            It works on a real display, but doesn’t some other way?

            So, r u doing this over vnc? Or?

              @sdetweil Hi,

              Yes, it is hooked up to a real 24in display over HDMI.

              I am not running this over vnc.

                @someone123416 I guess I would delete the ~/.npm folder.

                Then use my script to install mm
                See https://github.com/sdetweil/MagicMirror_scripts

                Have to rename/delete the existing MagicMirror folder
