      No, because if that kills it, I don’t know how to bring it back - what file to edit etc…?

        @richard238 It just modifies the config.txt for you in a save way. There is a bigger chance of you killing your pi doing it manually than using the config tool.

          Ok, when I get time, I’ll create a backup of the MM SD card first, and then try the GUI config tool.

          Thanks.

            #sudo apt-get upgrade

            #cd MagicMirror/
            #git pull && npm install

            #cd
            #sudo nano /boot/config.txt (add in config.txt and save)
            dtoverlay=vc4-kms-v3d
            display_rotate=1

            #sudo raspi-config
            Advanced Options
            GL Driver
            G1 GL (Full KMS) OpenGL desktop driver with full KMS

            #sudo reboot

            ***I cannot remeber if I did this process or not
            #sudo nano ~/.config/lxsession/LXDE-pi/autostart
            @xrandr --output HDMI-1 --rotate right (add to autostart)

              Done through raspi-config, seems ok, boots and runs fine.

              sudo vcgencmd measure_temp
              

              shows 56.9C
