Your monitor is directly connected to the Pi?
-
@Mykle1 yes it is but I am using VNC Viewer to input commands from my laptop.
-
Sounds like you’re in node server only mode. Try running
DISPLAY=:0 npm startthrough VNC.Also, after you launch MM but it doesn’t appear, try opening a browser window on your laptop and entering 192.168.1.1:8080 (but you would put the IP address of your Pi in place of 192.168.1.1)
