      Did you remove these entries in the config.txt?

      display_rotate = 1
      avoid_warnings = 1

        display_rotate = 1 - is commented out (I’m happy with MM in landscape mode)
        avoid_warnings = 1 - line doesn’t exist.

          I had the same issue. I changed dtoverlay=vc4-kms-v3d to dtoverlay=vc4-fkms-v3d and was able to boot up again.

            That doesn’t work for me, MM boots to a few lines about blocks, then nothing else.

              Did you try the rasps-config tool to configure the GL driver?

                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.

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

                        sudo vcgencmd measure_temp
                        

                        shows 56.9C
