    if you installed one of the calendar patches or used the develop branch and intend to upgrade MANUALLY, YOU have to get back to the master branch ahead of time check the current branch cd ~/MagicMirror git branch output example * _fix_clipping develop master and if the highlighted (*) name is NOT master then rm package-lock.json rm package.json git checkout master use git branch to verify master is selected before continuing then do the commands as listed in the documentation if you are using my upgrade script, it will handle all this for you.

    this release requires a new version of nodejs, which is NOT available on the armv6l processor systems, raspberry pi 0w the install and upgrade scripts will abort manual install last step will fail nodejs test, but new code will be downloaded to reverse the code download do git checkout -b oldbranch tags/v2.30 # npm install not required if on this prior branch hardware upgrade required!!!

    MagicMirror install on pi0w broken with legacy OS… chromium startup yields illegal instruction uninstall/reinstall doesn’t fix… I think it installed the armv7l version incorrectly.

    we have seen and verified that electron 8.5 and above are not working on raspian Jessie but Jessie is pretty old… u will see an error on npm start (after a version upgrade) /home/pi/MagicMirror__RL1/node_modules/electron/dist/electron: /lib/arm-linux-gnueabihf/libdbus-1.so.3: no version information available (required by /home/pi/MagicMirror__RL1/node_modules/electron/dist/electron) strongly recommended to rebuild a new sd card with raspian Buster

    fixes are published in the next release via the develop branch to get there if you did manual install cd ~/MagicMirror git checkout develop git pull npm install restart MagicMirror as normal if you used my install script cd ~/MagicMirror git fetch origin develop:develop git checkout develop npm install if u are already ON the develop branch, and want to update to the latest, git pull npm install restart MagicMirror as normal

    @sdetweil I never use the button. Learned backticks early on. Was so happy about it that I wrote the tutorial Jun 28, 2017, 7:40 PM

    While trying to debug modules, I’ve been given quite mixed feedback regarding what to use to print messages to console, on either local system or in remote browser DevTools. So far, I have found the only reliable way that always seem to print something in the browser, is using console.error(). The others have varied. I’m on MM v2.2.2 (master).

    @eyesallin said: I am using a PI 5 with Linux bookworm OK, with Pi5/bookworm the wayland standard config should work… Or do you have re-configured to X11? You can check right syntax for your system by trial&error on commandline in terminal window. If you are working headless (remote terminal) you have to place a „DISPLAY:0“ in front of the command you are trying… Regards, Ralf

    @schlomm said in Issues with MMM-Button: @sdetweil You’ve said that I only need to change some settings in the rasp-config. Do you have any additional information what needs to be changed? I updated my post, I was incorrect
