DUDE YOU ARE THE ABSOLUTE BOSS!

You may have even saved Christmas for my secret santa recipient. Thank you so much for helping me slog through this last piece of the puzzle. So it was a missing electron install after all? (And probably all my fuzzing around with the start up solutions)

@sdetweil that started up very quickly. Let me clean out my pm2 and re-run the autostart you suggested at the beginning.

@sdetweil ```
secretsanta@raspberrypi:~/MagicMirror $ npm start

magicmirror@2.25.0 start
DISPLAY=“${DISPLAY:=:0}” ./node_modules/.bin/electron js/electron.js

sh: 1: ./node_modules/.bin/electron: not found

I did try to use systemd but it did not work so I disabled and deleted all the systemd attempts.

@sdetweil Yea I cleared out the systemd services I tried to enabled. They are disabled and stopped. I also tried an rc.local startup file to run the .sh file which never worked. I know that’s depreciated but desperate times and desperate measures lol.
