      I created the config.js and still it just stops after stating.
      I’ve verified it doesn’t freeze, as I can use Alt-Tab.

      See the Electron in the upper taskbar? But there is nothing opened.
      Again, can this be a VM and/or 64 bit issue?

        My friend, you have to follow the readme in Hello-Lucy

        1. The gif from Hello-Lucy is displayed by MMM-EasyPix so you have to install that (It’s in the readme)

        2. There is no entry for Hello-Lucy in the config.js. Lucy is an enhancement to MMM-voice so you’ll need your entry for MMM-voice

        3. I’ve never used Debian so I can’t say about that

        4. I use ubuntu 16.04LTS 64 bit

          If there is any excuse… It’s 03:30 AM.

          But still; the config.js in the Debian 9 installation is clean, it is default.
          So that is not the issue (regarding the message you pasted; that is for me running Linux through Windows :) )

            I’ve never used a VM environment. I strictly run ubuntu on all my machines except for 1 Pi mirror It’s definitely NOT a 64 bit issue.

              You copied and renamed it?

              I don’t know about running Linux through windows because I don’t do that.

                  @mykle1 Could it be the output is wrong? Meaning - trying to output to a different display?

                    I’m not sure this is exact solution. However,
                    Some system (like ATB) has an issue to execute Electron of MM (after 2.x - new GPU acceleration).
                    You can run MM as serveronly mode to use your existing Chrome Browser instead Electron.
                    You can make a script to execute MM serveronly mode and Chrome to display it.

                    Or you can try this to disable GPU.

                    npm start -- --disable-gpu
