    Hi, maybe you have the same problem as me (and it’s not the screensaver). In /var/log/syslog i found this messages: Jun 13 07:12:41 raspberrypi kernel: [ 3057.339364] Out of memory: Kill process 1070 (electron) score 576 or sacrifice child Jun 13 07:12:41 raspberrypi kernel: [ 3057.339426] Killed process 1070 (electron) total-vm:673580kB, anon-rss:59472kB, file-rss:0kB, shmem-rss:214908kB Jun 13 07:12:41 raspberrypi kernel: [ 3057.373292] oom_reaper: reaped process 1070 (electron), now anon-rss:0kB, file-rss:0kB, shmem-rss:215056kB For me it looks like electron has crashed. After using google I’ve found a hint with other processes to change the value of vm.min_free_kbytes. You can find it in /etc/sysctl.d/98-rpi.conf. I’ved change the value to vm.min_free_kbytes = 1024 After this there is no more blank screen anymore.

    I got a notification that there was an update and to install it I had to type: npm i -g npm But when I do this I get all kind off warnings about “missing write access to /usr/lib/node_…” #1: Is this a real update #2: how do I give it write access?

    Hi there, i installed today the Magic Mirror (V. 2.3.1) with the Batch and so far everything is working fine, but i have a bug, that had driven me crazy. I wanted to add 2 different Calendars which i automatically export from my Owncloud to an ICS File on my NAS, from where the Raspi with MagicMirror imports it with “localhost:8080…”. One Calendar worked from the beginning, the second one don’t wanted to show ANY entries. After 3 hours of testing i used a third and forth Calender and these instandly worked (even exported from the same Owncloud). Then i checked the ics files and the Calender with about 284 KB was the bigggest one. Calender one has 213 KB and the other have about 36 KB. When i open up the Calender Nr. 2 and Delete some rows by hand to reduce the size the file even works! The “Magic Size” is about 220 KB until 225 KB so that this file will work or not. Any idears how this could be fixed? If you want further informations i will send you the screenshots and Code and so on, but now i am such as tiered that i just want to fall in my bed ;o). G8

    You guys are amazing! I did two things to get the module to work. I changed the name of the Module to CoinMarketCap instead of Coinmarketcap and also i added a comma at the end of } the wrapper. New to all this raspberry pi and coding so i wanted to say thanks to all of you people!

    @reddyman I too am brown. Again the non-stereotypical type. I don’t have any direct experience with this, but what if you just removed the RPi? Then it’s just a monitor and you shouldn’t have to even pull it out of your carry-on. Chances are they’ll inspect regardless, but you shouldn’t have any major issues. You can clearly see where all the wires are going. good luck!

    Hello everybody, I have been stuck for months with this issue: I would like to be able to run scripts to switch profile on demand: I know this command: http://localhost:8080/remote?action=NOTIFICATION¬ification=CURRENT_PROFILE&payload="Test" but it has to be run on a browser, impossible to run it via a script… I know this one as well : this.sendNotification(‘CURRENT_PROFILE’, ‘Test’); but I don’t know how to run it via a script neither… I would like to run these scripts via IFTTT, so when I say “ok Google, I want to see blabla on mirror”, it switches profiles. Warning: I know that ifttt needs to run commands on an server opened to the internet, but I already have one (not my mirror). so my server opened to the internet will run the commands received from ifttt and run the scripts from the mirror to switch profile (whatever ssh, bash, perl, php…) Thank you for your help!

    @schlachtkreuzer6 I’m a bit late to the party, but he path is correct. You just have to define remote_compliments.json like this. module: 'compliments', position: 'lower_third', config: { updateInterval: 15000, compliments: { remoteFile: 'remote_compliments.json', morning: [ 'Guten Morgen!', 'Wie hast du geschlafen?', 'Ich wünsche dir einen schönen Tag!' ], ...

    Create a branch on top of the master one. When an update is available, go back to the master, do the pull. Then rebase your branch onto master.

    @cruunnerr @Mykle1 You both are right. @cruunnerr is executing the Shell script, which must be executed in the same directory as the script is located in, except you define the path in the pm2 command like this pm2 start /path/to/script.sh (also given, the script used absolute paths, or can handle the “remote” execution) @Mykle1 You are executing the pm2 “deamon”, which can be executed everywhere

    Not sure what changed. I had the MM running overnight and when I checked it this morning the Feels like temp was correct. My guess is that there was an issue with the OpenWeather api. [image: 1527861107945-ebdbcc5d-c821-43e8-af09-b957f62102b0-image.png] Thanks,

    I’m running on an RPi 3b and have 4 users. Each user has just under 100 pictures that were used to train the mirror. Giving a total of about 350 images. I have my own module that if the user is recognized it plays a video. (Classic Disney “Mirror Mirror on the wall” type module) How many images are you using for your recognition file?

    @sharmstr Yep, thats true. Change *.css or Javascript file => Just reload the Webinterface (ctrl + r) Change config.json => Reload the Webinterface will do it 90%, else restart MagicMirror

    Hi, I’m new to this forum and new to magic mirror. I’m currently using a raspberry pi 1 model b to try and install magic mirror and I’m having a nightmare. I’ve tried two fresh copy’s of OS one been the latest Raspbian, and even tried Jessie. Every time i install MagicMirror I get errors listing dependencies, and other errors. I know that when your running it on a rp1 model b it has to be the server only version, can anyone please advise or point me to a good guide for my model pi and running server only? Thank you in advance. Jack
