    @liminal1 note that rapios on pi4 and 5 use a new display manager called Wayland.

    so all the commands for display MGMT have changed. see the commands posted above.

    or set the os back to x11. see the raspi-config command

      I did try those commands, they are not working for me. Maybe I need more context for that (which is essentially what I was asking for :) Or I switch back to a slower and less efficient display model that negates having a Pi 5. Is that a correct asumption?

      Maybe I wasn’t clear, but Im just asking if anyone does have it working on the Pi 5 with Bookworm. What did you use and how did you do it?

      Thank you :)

          @liminal1 doesn’t matter 4 or 5. As long as bookworm wayland, it’s working fine. For what’s worth, I’m on a 5.

            If I create that script and run it, it brings up a logon page :(

                @liminal1 that makes no sense.

                you are running this from a terminal window, right

                ctrl-alt-t on the desktop.

                nothing login related there

                  Its a touch screen, what does this do?

                  nothing login related there

                  Not sure what you mean?

                    @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
