    Hi KirAsh4, OK Thanks. I’ll test directly on a raspberry and not on a VM.

    Thanks, but I’ll wait till my US vendor has them. $5 plus free shipping beats getting it from the UK.

    Solved! I was running node v0.12.9. Once I upgraded to node v6.2.1 everything worked fine.

    Did you by chance follow the official guide on how to install it? MM2 has been out of beta for a bit now, so if that’s what you have, I recommend starting over. When done properly on the right hardware, MM will come up without you needing to open up any html file.

    I faced the issue when I was working under MagicMirror folder and then installing the 3rd party modules. I corrected it by going into /MagicMirror/Modules folder and then installing the module using the git command. Hope this helps

    @EoF, awesome. Thanks for that. Someone should start collecting all the various keyboard shortcuts and compile them in one post, possibly even on the wiki page. I’ve seen CTRL-W posted, this ALT-F2. One can also completely switch to a virtual console and back to the GUI by hitting CTRL-ALT-F[1-7] …

    @paviro Thanks a lot! I actually tried your solution before but it did not work. After your post I was sure it had to work somehow and I was able to solve my problem. My mistake was to leave out / to wrongly implement username and password. With http://username:password@server.local:5005/calendar.ics everything is working perfectly fine.

    You’ll have to write your own code. The compliments module only does random.

    Sorry about that my internet here went out for a few minutes. Here is the rest of what I was trying to add to my first post… I would like some help getting my pi2 running Rasbian jessie working. I think that i installed all I need to but am not 100% sure, the auto installer failed and i attempted to install manually. My first thought was that Electron was not installed or not installed correctly so i tried running the “node serveronly” option but that failed too. from the results of that i am lead to believe that it has something to do with the modules. I had originally try to customize my the config for the modules but i now have all the default settings in place. I have also included the log file from the last error 0_1464396891025_npm-debug.log This is the error that i get when i try “npm start”. pi@raspberrypi:~/MagicMirror $ npm start magicmirror@2.0.0 start /home/pi/MagicMirror electron js/electron.js /home/pi/MagicMirror/node_modules/electron-prebuilt/dist/electron: relocation error: /home/pi/MagicMirror/node_modules/electron-prebuilt/dist/electron: symbol t4lessIjESaIS2_EE17_M_insert_unique_IS2_EESt17_Rb_tree_iteratorIS2_ESt23_Rb_tree_const_iteratorIS2_EOT_, version GLIBC_2.4 not defined in file libm.so.6 with link time reference npm ERR!

    Ok, I did find a solution on a different forum in the interweb that did work. I post it here, so that if someone else is looking for the same thing, try the following: Before we start, I did this on a raspberry pi 3, there are a lot of solutions, but most of them don’t work on the pi3. To prevent the pi from going black, I used a little porgam thats called set. apt-get install x11-xserver-utils No you have to open the file: /etc/xdg/lxsession/LXDE/autostart,. Put the following stuff in it: xset s off # don't activate screensaver xset -dpms # disable Energy Star features xset s noblank # don't blank the video device Possibly also comment out the line that says @xscreensaver -no-splash, so the file should now look like this: @lxpanel --profile LXDE @pcmanfm --desktop --profile LXDE # @xscreensaver -no-splash xset s off xset -dpms xset s noblank As well make sure you did the stuff from the wiki in the /etc/kbd/config. In this file the following values should be set to the following: BLANK_TIME=0 BLANK_DPMS=off POWERDOWN_TIME=0 After you did all this, /reboot the pi. this worked for me… :-) cheers, Flo

    I figured it out. I was putting the entire link in the line instead of just the key. Once I made that change, it came right up. Dumb mistake but that’s how I learn. Thanks for your help!!!
