      @michelw your xwindows might have a different numbering, so use that

      Not sure what you mean. I am not a linux expert ;)

        @michelw xwindows has logical displays, using numbers for the ‘identifiet’

        :0

        etc…

        some systems use different numbering

        my zorin system uses :10

        electron expects that I’d to be in the DISPLAY environment variable

        so, open a terminal window and do
        env

        show the result

              Not sure I understand what you mean. I’m doing all of this using ssh.

                  Not sure I understand what you mean. I’m doing all of this using ssh.

                  Does this help?

                  michel@orangepizero2:~$ cat /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/01-orangepi-defaults.conf 
                  Section "Monitor"
                  	Identifier		"Monitor0"
                  	Option			"DPMS" "false"
                  EndSection
                  Section "ServerFlags"
                  	Option			"BlankTime" "0"
                  	Option			"StandbyTime" "0"
                  	Option			"SuspendTime" "0"
                  	Option			"OffTime" "0"
                  EndSection
                  # rotate the screen
                  Section "Device"
                      Identifier "default"
                      Driver "fbdev"
                      Option "Rotate" "CCW"
                  EndSection
                  

                  I just added the rotation part and it rotated the desktop. The identifier seems to be " Monitor0"

                    @michelw ok, using command line

                    cd ~/MagicMirror
                    export DISPLAY=Monitor0
                    npm start
                    

                    if that works then edit installers/mm.sh and add that export before the npm start

                    then pm2 start should work

                              Yes chromium seems to work. I installed vnc server since this SBC is in my mirror and I have now way to attach a mouse.

                                Not sure what you are trying to say by pointing me to the 9to5 article. Is there something relevant in there i missed? :)

                                  I just played around with the DISPLAY parameter and when setting:

                                  michel@orangepizero2:~/MagicMirror$ export DISPLAY=:1
                                  michel@orangepizero2:~/MagicMirror$ npm start
                                  
                                  > magicmirror@2.17.1 start /home/michel/MagicMirror
                                  > DISPLAY="${DISPLAY:=:0}" ./node_modules/.bin/electron js/electron.js

                                  I get the magic mirror in the VNC session (but not on the monitor)

                                  So this seems to be related to the output somehow.

                                        Ah right.

                                        I would like to thank you very much for all your help.

                                        Went looking for a second hand Raspberry PI 4B 1G today and found one. A little expensive but at least I have something more compatible now so I at least can get the magicmirror running :)

                                        Still willing to help out (testing) if you would like to make your script Orange Pi Zero 2 compatible. That might help others.

                                          Yes, that is correct.

                                            @michelw it’s not the script, it’s the assumption by the mm startup, defined in package.json), that DISPLAY needs to be :0 if not already set.
