I have formatted the post. I have added a double quote in front of the # tags so the texts don’t appear as headings. Sorry again
Ah, I read that wrong. AFAIK the current Raspbian OS (Bookworm) uses Wayland and not X (like Volumio). I’m sorry, but IMHO this is not the right place to look for help for this system. I suggest posting your problem here and/or here.
Oh. Thank you so much for your time though. But I really appreciate the amount of effort you put towards helping others and getting working solutions. Thank you so much.

I have found the solution to my problem and have created a reddit post on it. I thought of sharing it with you if it might help you in future.

As starters never modify /boot/config.txt.
Custom entries need to be placed in /boot/userconfig.txt
so this need to move:
max_framebuffer_height=1480
hdmi_group=2
hdmi_mode=87
hdmi_timings=320 0 80 16 32 1480 0 16 4 12 0 0 0 60 0 42000000 3

On a webui i successfully install the plugin touch display
And then,
I plug the display hdmi & power cord to my rpi
Then restart.
It seems that i made a mistake? So, that’s why i couldn’t play it on my touch screen?
It’s showing a black screen after that volumio come out on my screen.
Volumio V2.xxx isn’t supported anymore for more than 1.5 years. Upgrade to V3

An error occurred while installing the plugin Error
Please check your date on the rPi, guess the date-time was way off when you tried to install the plugin, looking at the first error message. Running apt-get update failed
have a look at this topic:
Should i format my sd card again? Then do this this first before i run other comand prompt?
take a new SD or do a factory reset.
Perform the first configuration of Volumio
Enable ssh and folow the instructions from my previous post
can you install the older versions?
i switched server to get the plugin to install but this is not always needed
