# Troubleshooting
## First Steps
The first step to troubleshooting any problem is getting the cause of the error.
* Find KlipperScreen.log:
!!! warning "Important"
This log file should be provided if you ask for support.
Depending on your setup the file could be accessible from the web interface alongside other logs
| Mainsail | Fluidd |
|:-------------------------------------------------------:|:---------------------------------------------------:|
| ![mainsail_logs](img/troubleshooting/logs_mainsail.png) | ![fluidd_logs](img/troubleshooting/logs_fluidd.png) |
if you can't find it in the web interface, use sftp to grab the log (for example Filezilla, WinSCP)
Located at `~/printer_data/logs`or in `/tmp/` if the former doesn't exist.
## System logs
If [KlipperScreen.log](#first-steps) doesn't exist open a terminal in the host (typically from SSH) and
copy all the relevant logs to the folder described above that can be seen and copied from the webui:
```sh
systemctl status KlipperScreen > ~/printer_data/logs/KliperScreen_systemctl.log
journalctl -xe -u KlipperScreen > ~/printer_data/logs/KliperScreen_journalctl.log
cp /var/log/Xorg.0.log ~/printer_data/logs/KliperScreen_Xorg.log
```
Alternatively you can inspect them directly on the terminal:
```sh
systemctl status KlipperScreen
```
```sh
journalctl -xe -u KlipperScreen
```
```sh
cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log
```
## Screen shows console instead of KlipperScreen

```sh
xf86OpenConsole: Cannot open virtual console 2 (Permission denied)
```
[Follow this steps](Troubleshooting/VC_ERROR.md)
!!! abstract "If you see this line in the [system logs](#system-logs):"
```sh
xinit[948]: /usr/lib/xorg/Xorg: symbol lookup error: /usr/lib/xorg/modules/drivers/fbturbo_drv.so: undefined symbol: shadowUpdatePackedWeak
```
[Follow this steps](Troubleshooting/FBturbo.md)
!!! abstract "If you see this line in the [system logs](#system-logs):"
```sh
KlipperScreen-start.sh: (EE) no screens found(EE)
```
This is usually not the main cause of the error. [Start by checking the screen](Troubleshooting/Physical_Install.md)
Drivers not installed or misconfigured can cause this too, continue looking the logs for more clues.
!!! abstract "If you see this line in the [system logs](#system-logs):"
```sh
modprobe: FATAL: Module g2d_23 not found in directory /lib/modules/6.1.21-v8+
```
This error is common on RaspberryOS when using FBturbo, it's not a related issue.
!!! abstract "If you see this line in the [system logs](#system-logs):"
```sh
(EE) Cannot run in framebuffer mode. Please specify busIDs for all framebuffer devices
```
This has been known to happen on RaspberryOS Bookworm Lite on Pi5
```sh
sudo nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/99-vc4.conf
```
paste this into the file:
```
Section "OutputClass"
Identifier "vc4"
MatchDriver "vc4"
Driver "modesetting"
Option "PrimaryGPU" "true"
EndSection
```
reboot
[Maybe it's the wrong framebuffer](Troubleshooting/Framebuffer.md)
If you can't fix it, [try using a desktop distro as described here.](Troubleshooting/Last_resort.md)

## Screen is always ***white*** / ***black*** or ***`No signal`***
If the screen never shows the console even during startup, Then it's typically an improperly installed screen.
[Follow this steps](Troubleshooting/Physical_Install.md)
## The screen shows colors or 'No signal' when idle
In KliperScreen settings find 'Screen DPMS' and turn it off.
![dpms](img/troubleshooting/dpms.gif)
Your screen doesn't seem to support turning off via software.
KlipperScreen will enable an internal screensaver to make it all black, and hopefully avoid burn-in.
If you find a way of turning it off, please share it: [Contact](Contact.md)
