Hi, now when I boot the RPI with [Resin.io](http://Resin.io), I just get the ASCII Resin logo without underneath “Booted - check your [resin.io](http://resin.io) dashboard”. Now I want to use the HDMI output to open a browser (Chromium). Is it possible, or does the HDMI output always output the [resin.io](http://resin.io) splashscreen?

@RobinReumers , glad you got it working. You may also want to checkout this project ( [https://github.com/fwrgit/resin-electronjs](https://github.com/fwrgit/resin-electronjs)) which is a really nice starting point for electron (libchromium) based web apps on the Raspberry Pi 2 & 3.

Another quick tip is to check out our realtime gitter chat over here: [https://gitter.im/resin-io/chat](https://gitter.im/resin-io/chat) … Here you will get way quicker answers and probably find people who are working on similar things as you.  
Cheers
