      @ChanceTime bookworm on pi4 or 5 uses a different window manager, Wayland, and requires different commands

      you can go back to xorg by using the raspi-config command

        Hi

        I have had MMM-Pir module running perfectly for months. When I updated my RPi 3B+ to the latest updates this week the module produce the same error message

        Pir Error Detected: EINVAL: invalid argument, write

        I have tried reinstalling the module but no luck.

        Any help greatly appreciated

        Thanks

            Hi, check pir_mode feature in readme readme

            by default pir_mode is on mode 0
            With pi 4 and pi 5, you can have EINVAL: invalid argument, write error
            In this case
            you have to use with pi 4: pir_mode: 1,
            with pi 5 pir_mode: 2,

                @bugsounet thank you changing to pir_mode 1 fixed the problem. Just for awareness I am running on a RPi 3 B+ Rev 1.3 hence why I didn’t do this sooner.
