@sdetweil Yup, it’s working now. Awesome, thank you so much.

(The translations/en.json is just a single word change, so easy to fix manually without being stashed.)

@jca2112 from the log,

saved translations/en.json

make sure you check on this change, as it was stashed but not re-applied…

@jca2112 ok edit the mm.sh
and change

npm start

npm run start:x11

I know why… I fixed the script on saturday, but didn’t catch that on my mac I was on a different branch, so the master branch didn’t get updated til about 9pm central last night.
I drove all day yesterday, and fixed it again on master…

@jca2112 when did you run it? today?

I ran the script yesterday (04/05/2026).

can you look at ~/MagicMirror/installers/mm.sh

and see if
npm run start:x11

is present on line 9

Here is the mm.sh:

#!/bin/bash
cd /home/dietpi/MagicMirror

if [ $(ps -ef | grep -v grep | grep -i -e xway -e labwc | wc -l) -ne 0 ]; then 
   # if WAYLAND_DISPLAYis set, use it, else set to -0
   export WAYLAND_DISPLAY=${WAYLAND_DISPLAY:=wayland-0}
   npm run start:wayland
else
   DISPLAY=:0 npm start
fi 

#DISPLAY=:0 npm start

also, can you do
pm2 stop all
cd ~/MagicMirror
and try either
npm start 

npm output:

> magicmirror@2.35.0 start
> node --run start:wayland

@sdetweil I ran your upgrade script as well and I also see electron errors in the pm2 logs. The system just loads to a blank/black screen (with cursor), but fails to load beyond that.

@sdetweil For sure. I am suspecting the card may have been flaking. Now to fix my Docker image. 😮‍💨

@sdetweil Flashed the new card and installed trixie, Did a clean install. Ran your restore script and everything is running just fine.

After downgrading, did you run
npm install again

@sdetweil Hi Sam. I upgraded using your upgrade script. Then I saw the following error, /home/pi/MagicMirror/node_modules/electron/dist/electron exited with signal SIGTRAP. MM shows that it has started but browser does not launch, Electron failing. Tried a bunch of things but nothing seems to help. Switched back to X11 and still getting the dreaded error.

I have downgraded to 2.34.0 and still same issue now.

I am flashing a new SD card now and will try a fresh install and see how that goes

@mumblebaj can you articulate the issues?

mumblebaj — Fri, 03 Apr 2026 19:10:17 GMT

I have just reverted to the old version as well. Too many issues with electron. Breaking issues for me as well. And I am running Pi5 Trixie. Something about Pi5 Trixie and Electron 41 not playing well together. v2.34.0 ran just fine on Trixie and using Wayland. Now it is breaking.

@sdetweil gotcha.

I’ll likely re-work my entire system(s) after tax season is over, but this will hold until then. Once I have time, I’m mulling a few changes that’ll break everything anyway.

@BKeyport it’s just a name. I picked something, could be anything except master and develop as those are already used
