      @liminal1 the terminal window has nothing to do with login.

      your system should boot to the desktop
      then open a terminal window
      and type the commands above

      or use an ssh session from your pc

            I just cant believe how trash this all is, not MM, but just the Pi 5 and wayland. And if you do switch back to X11 as a lot of people are suggesting. Everything else breaks.

            I give up, I think its pretty rubbish Pi foundation selling something that’s still so undeveloped.

            Anyway, thanks for trying :)
