      Probably something I should know, but

      I am in the process of customizing my MM2 - and I am NOT in front of it.
      So I RDP over to it on one of my monitors, start a terminal and launch MM.
      Since I am now locked out, I have to use PUTTY to work on it on a different monitor.
      i change stuff and then sudo reboot. Every time.

      There must be a better way of stopping and starting MM2.
      Help?

      Thanks!

        if you are loged in on putty, you can restart your mirror using this command:
        pm2 restart mm

        or you’ll have to install a VNC Server on Raspberry to display your screen remotly.

        https://www.google.ch/search?q=raspberry+pi+vnc+server+autostart&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&client=firefox-b&gfe_rd=cr&ei=hdJ0V-eKPOLI8geiy5igDg

        And then you’ll be able to reload the mm pushing CTRL + R

          Thanks. How do I mark this as closed/resolved?

            We're all stories in the end. Just make it a good one, eh?
