      Hi all,

      After a much needed update to my raspberry pi4, my cronjobs

      0 7 * * * root /usr/bin/vcgencmd display_power 1
      0 22 * * * root /usr/bin/vcgencmd display_power 0

      have stopped working. Even running these in terminal is fruitless. Any work around or suggestions?

        @Nneuland I assume you are now on Bullseye - see here https://forum.magicmirror.builders/topic/16865/mmm-remotecontrol-or-vcgencmd-issue and change the settings to use the fake KMS driver (fkms) instead of kms.
