<![CDATA[Rpi3 & 7" pi touchscreen - MM not displaying]]>Greetings!
I’ve tried multiple times with the same issue. My MM isn’t displaying on the 7" Pi touchscreen. Presumably it wants to display on the HDMI.
When the pi boots I see the raspbian boot sequence on the touchscreen.

Connected to Pi via ssh.
Installed MM2 via script ‘bash -c “$(curl -sL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/sdetweil/MagicMirror_scripts/master/raspberry.sh)”’

PM2 confirms a successful start of MM2. Nothing on the 7" touchscreen. Why would this be the case?

@kindsouls as I said, never seen one… others have done it…

do u seen the pi desktop after boot?

Raspbian lite, so no desktop, but I do see the
“raspberrypi login:”
after boot. I could hook up a keyboard and type on the screen I’m certain.
I can also do things that effect the display in realtime, such as:

sudo sh -c “echo 80 > /sys/class/backlight/rpi_backlight/brightness”

@kindsouls the 7 in is not DISPLAY:0

I have never seen or used one, so I don’t know what its display number is.

change it in installers/mm.sh

I thought so too, but then I ran tvservice:

pi@raspberrypi:~ $ tvservice -l
2 attached device(s), display ID’s are :
Display Number 0, type Main LCD
Display Number 2, type HDMI 0
