      Sorry, don not know, how to edit mm.sh. when I go to ~/MagicMirror/installers/mm.sh I get a long list but can not edit it. When I go to mm.sh via Datei Manager I get only this few lines:
      #!/bin/bash

      This file is still here to keep PM2 working on older installations.

      cd /home/pi5/MagicMirror
      DISPLAY=:0 npm start.
      I have seen that in raspberry config > advanced options one can switch to wayland backends. Could that help here in any way? Sorry but my knowledge in Linux is not really exciting. Thanks for all your effort.

            with npm run start:wayland

                @sdetweil Thank you so far Sam. I give up and will use my Pi4 where everything runs smothly. It is much to time consuming and frustrating. When I have more time I think I try an MM installation manually from scratch. I really appriciate your help. Can I show my appreciation in any way ?

                  cd ~/MagicMirror/installers
                  nano mm.sh
                  

                  move around with arrow keys, backspace , etc,
                  change

                  then
                  ctrl-o
                  to write file, hit enter
                  ctrl-x to exit

                  this project requires a lot of learning
                  no shortcuts

                    just be careful… there are lots of things my script does for you
