I’m not sure what happened, but after doing

sudo nano /etc/xdg/lxsession/LXDE/autostart

and add to the bottom of the file, on a new line, this text;

sudo /bin/sh /etc/X11/Xsession.d/xinput_calibrator_pointercal.sh

and rebooting, I got this error: https://i.imgur.com/VzaaCLG.jpg I don’t know if it’s realted to what I did but it happened. I googled it and after a few commands, was able to log in.

I’m not sure I understood what you said. What I did was I didn’t set it up to boot up and show X Windows on the PiScreen right away. Each time I boot up, it works on HDMI and to get it to display on PiScreen I run

FRAMEBUFFER=/dev/fb1 startx

and it works. That’s what I like. I was just wondering if there’s a similar simple command to run that makes it go back to HDMI and display on my TV after running

FRAMEBUFFER=/dev/fb1 startx

. So in other words, I boot up my Pi, log in, it works on HDMI, I run

FRAMEBUFFER=/dev/fb1 startx

to switch over to PiScreen, and now when I want to switch back to HDMI, what is the simplest thing to do here?

Here is my commanline.txt file: https://i.imgur.com/LoWit6R.jpg (that’s all of it on screen). I don’t have

fbcon=map:10 fbcon=rotate:2 fbcon=font:ProFont6x11

to remove.

Also, thanks for the PolicyKit Authentication Agent tickbox suggestion. It got rid of the error. And resizing the icons works as well, so thank you.

Blip, blop, bloop…
