@sdetweil wow! my philosophy is different i will help anyone regardless

@sdetweil this is all veryfor you to say my understanding is lower than a noobie, my interest was to make a mm for my grand daughter.difficult because because i do not own a comp,just an ipad.i do not understand any of it even when reading about and the comp language and terminology just flys over my head.read what you suggested by myke, it was out of my range,all this go there open this close that do the other for me is difficult.that is why i have to rely on forum members for one off direction.
another thing i find difficult is the dis information on the forum which makes things more difficult.i have however learned somethings,the best was copy/paste saves the manual effort.i also have taken notes which are useful to a point,but not when the mm installation guide has been changed.
so i will persevere,even tho my pi has expired and buy a new one and start again.forgot to mention enjoyed making the mm frame and mounting the screem.
thankyou all.

hi i loaded the mm from your script

hi thx for that.
i now have mm installed as per your instructions i can open the config and everything else but still cant get the mm display.you asked to see the install log but permission was denied.
i am finding it difficult to understand why matters seem more complicated which makes everything more daunting especially after having an up and running mm which was ruined by me installing out of date info.
i am at a loss as to what to do next other than to sell everything.
regards,
geo
