New installation but even default is displayed

kupperma

This is an pi 3 Model B V1.2
the HDMI is about 2 Centimeters right to the MicroUSB Power input.

I updated to raspianOS bookworm first.

@kupperma weird…

do you have keyboard to pi system desktop?

if so, ctrl-alt-t to open a terminal window and do

echo $DISPLAY

kupperma

Yes I have_
Ok this does not work.
So it seems to be raspianOS failure.

sdetweil

@kupperma I ONLY use SSH to install MM… never use the actual display.

have pi 0w, 02w, 3, 4,5 odroid, jetson nano, chromebox, chromebook,
and multiple virtual machines under vmware

NEVER seen npm run start say successful but not see it on screen…

also, on the screen if u can,
ctrl-c to stop the in ssh version
on screen
cd ~/Magicmirror
npm start

@kupperma said in New installation but even default is displayed:

Ok this does not work.

what does not work?

kupperma

The display does not react to ctrl-alt-t and there is no terminal visible.

sdetweil

@kupperma ok, on the menu bar there is a terminal window, click that

kupperma

I know what you mean:

in an earlier installation I could move the mouse and the menubar got visible or I could press F11 and the menubar got visible. But now nothing works.
So should I reinstall raspian and start from the beginning or is there a work a round?

sdetweil

@kupperma can u reboot? does anything change? again weird…

did you have MM running before? what would you lose starting over?

IF you start over,
new flash
boot, skip updates,
reboot turn on ssh

then run my install script… it will update system, install node, then mm…

kupperma

I start over!
Thanks for the checklist.
I wont loose much for my custom.css , config.js I have the code copied in a textfile. The modules I would have to reinstall but thats ok.

Thank you for your time.
