      @carlywarly thank you for your help. I tried all of the mentions commands bot still having a black screen.

      on "pm2 logs --lines=100 i get this error message.

      Also after running “npm install” I get this messages:

      npm WARN optional SKIPPING OPTIONAL DEPENDENCY: fsevents@~2.1.1 (node_modules/chokidar/node_modules/fsevents):

      After a reboot the desktop starts, also some programm starts turning screen first white for 2 seconds then it turns black.

      What can I do?

        @m0bed So, I changed my config found out that this modules dont work at the moment:
        MMM-Homematic-Heaters
        MMM-FRITZ-Box-Callmonitor
        On the callmonitor I tried this help topic, but not working.
        https://github.com/MichMich/MagicMirror/issues/2144

        After deleting this two moduls form the config, every thing works fine, but still getting the messages from npm install.

            Found one more module too. In my case a black screen appears through the standard calendar module.

            my config is

                            {
                        module: "calendar",
                        header: "Termine",
                        position: "top_left",
                        config: {
                                timeFormat: 'absolute',
                                maximumEntries: 10,
                                dateFormat: 'ddd DD MMM HH:mm',
                                fullDayEventDateFormat: 'ddd DD MMM',
                                showEnd: false,
                                urgency: 0,
                                getRelative: 0,
                                calendars: [
                                        {
                                                symbol: "calendar-check",
                                                url: "https://calendar.google.com/calendar/ical/XXXXXXXXXXXXX/basic.ics"
                                        },
                                        {
                                                url: "https://calendar.google.com/calendar/ical/XXXXXXXXXXX/basic.ics"
                                        }
                                ]
                        }
                },

            How can I create an issue for that?

            Or is there a problem in my config?

              @Klinge black screen

              look in two places,
              the window where you start mm,
              using npm start
              or
              pm2
              if pm2 use the command
              pm2 logs --lines=???
              ??? is a number, default is 15

              also look in the developers window
              ctrl-shift-i and select the console tab and scroll up to see any errors

                @m0bed did u run npm install in all the module folders which have a package.json file?

                next time, use my upgrade script
                see here

                    @Klinge looks like u did not run
                    npm install
                    after the git pull

                    darksky looks like it will need one too

                    or use the upgrade script with force at the end, instead of apply
