Ok, after git pull, had to do a npm ci and that fixes it!

@jbat66 all good mate. I’m likely in a different geographic region to you. But anyway it was an issue that someone in GitHub that resolved for me so I can’t really take credit. I would point you to the GitHub but it was quite awhile back hence I can’t find the link anymore, therefore I went into my txt file and gave you guys the code.

Probably going to use and try it out first. So it’s true film only works in the day?

Decided to drop this for now guys. The new monitor is a 27 qhd compared to the previous 24 fhd. With the extra real estate, everything doesn’t seems to be so cluttered now.

ill be damned. managed to get it to work using this after some searching

Edit the “config.txt” in the “/boot” directory.

Go to:

“# Enable DRM VC4 V3D driver
dtoverlay=vc4-kms-v3d
max_framebuffers=2”

And change “dtoverlay=vc4-kms-v3d” to “dtoverlay=vc4-fkms-v3d”.

There is a bug in the “vc4-kms-v3d” driver.

After changing in the “config.txt” “vcgencmd display_power 0” returns a “display_power=0”.

@sdetweil ok boss. Will just leave it as it is and wait for a future update. Don’t think I’ll go back to x11 given the amount of time spent configuring wayland crontab to schedule on off :D

Thanks anyway!

@KristjanESPERANTO thanks, that fixed it now!

@sdetweil many thanks for your help once again sam!

@sdetweil it worked! is that your expectation?

@sdetweil this safe?

@sdetweil uhm which are the info that are sensitive?

so im actually wayland instead of x11?

@sdetweil dont know man, gets even weirder.

i cant turn on mm using the terminal on the pi directly.
i tried npm run start:x11 and it will just close off with a /home/hsa/MagicMirror/node_modules/electron/dist/electron exited with signal SIGSEGV

i can now only turn on my mm using pm2 on my ssh terminal…

btw i have a cron job, not sure if this is causing the issue

crontab -e
38 00 * * * /home/HSA/display_on.sh
37 00 * * * /home/HSA/display_off.sh

display_off.sh
#!/bin/bash
export WAYLAND_DISPLAY=wayland-1
export XDG_RUNTIME_DIR=/run/user/1000
/usr/bin/wlr-randr --output HDMI-A-2 --off

display_on.sh
#!/bin/bash
export WAYLAND_DISPLAY=wayland-1
export XDG_RUNTIME_DIR=/run/user/1000
/usr/bin/wlr-randr --output HDMI-A-2 --on --transform 90
