I’ll just throw in another vote for @sdetweil and his scripts. Dude is amazing when it comes to helping people with their mirrors.

Have you set it to autologin to GUI? Looks like you’ve got it set to login to console instead.

sudo raspi-config then go to boot options.

Text there is suggesting you change your password as well. Default user is pi with password raspberry

@brandonbrown said in How do I exit full screen after boot up?:

This is on an old thread, but thank you @Mykle1 .

Hey Brandon, you are very welcome. Also, have a look at this page (it’s short but informative) about the key commands you can use while your mirror is running. Have fun!

Hi @strawberry-3-141, @donboon3, @johnnyboy @cowboysdude @lolobyte

Thanks to everyone for replying.

For this to work I was thinking it could be different to a forum and perhaps needs an interface and layout of it’s own.

Something visual so it’s easy to pick out the information and see how it looks.

I have mocked something up - would love to get your feedback on this

mock up for interface to show shared config.js files

did you start your installation command with sudo ?

Thanks for the reply @broberg,

I am not using SSH. I was using VNC, will that make any difference?

Hi thanks for the reply,

I actually see the glaringly obvious mistake I made.

~ $ was already at the command line and I was retyping it.

Thanks for helping me with this @in_a_days.

I am now having a new issue getting the MagicMirror to start. I wondered if you might look over the problem. You can read about it here
