@sdetweil Thx I have done it with 2 different mm2 folder an in the one config.js I have write the electronic options now is the problem that when I start both mm2 folder they open on the display I have clicked the last time with the mouse how can I fix that? Or should I just copy the one configq js into the other folder so that both are in the same folder?

@Future-Mirror you can do it w two folders but you don’t need to

Probably electron saved it’s config once
Stop all MagicMirror instances

 cd  ~/.config
rm -rf Electron

Note the dot in front of config
Then restart MagicMirror

BKeyport

@Future-Mirror It may be wayland causing that - Try this:

sudo raspi-config

then use
option 6 “Advanced options”,
option A6, “Wayland”, then
option W1 “X11”
and approve the change.

This will switch you over to the old screen design system, where the instructions in the documentation is known to work.

If you would like, I’d be happy to share my configuration files up to the modules and how I did it. Let me know.
