    @Laz As all of my systems are behind a firewall - I’ve opened the Mirror to “public” access by using the config of var config = { address: "0.0.0.0", port: 8080, ipWhitelist: [], ... then, I simply load the mirror in my main computer’s browser with http://mirror:8080 and use the devtools of my browser to view the errors and such.

    @sdetweil Seems to be working great! Thank you very much for taking the time to make this a multi-instance module! Also great that you eliminated the need for npm install node-fetch@2. Even though I don’t know very much about java script, I understand it much better than these horoscopes :grinning_squinting_face:

    @rmcon great that you got it working on the test run, mostly currently it’s looking for mm files you might have changed for some reason, and conflict w the new release. most of the other issues I handle, upgrade node, npm and pm2 if needed. and in this release on pi0, increase swap space and increase the node heap space.

    Hello Team, I have a minor issue, I am using the module EXT-Screen, and it’s currently working; however, it doesn’t fully shut off. I can see the backlight of the monitor still on and most noticeable at night, the old MM 2.24.0 worked correctly, I’m not sure if I have to modify the /boot/config.txt? I’ve done something years ago, had a similar issue. Thanks for the help and all the work the Team put in.

    @mgustin As long as it works properly, there is no need to update it just to look “active” “Working or not” implies various cases, not a simple reason. Worked before, but not now, due to obsoleted/deprecated dependencies. Some might be fixable easily with a tiny effort. (e.g. install a few recent/alternative dependencies) Some might need the whole restructuring, and the module owner seems to have abandoned it; <= It can be said that “Not Working” In some cases, A user is just misusing the module. For example, incomplete installation, wrong configuration, mistypes, missing preparation, choosing the wrong module that is not fit for the purpose, etc. And there are many (yes, maybe too many) equivalent/alternative modules you can try. Cheer up.

    I had magic mirror for, about a year and a half. There was one failure due to bad sd card, so it was upgraded to SSD. Started having random blank screen with cursor and I couldn’t find any problems. Made update to version 2.20. It worked for a few weeks and problem came back. I didn’t shut it off because I was runnung pihole on the same RPI3. A week a go, i replaced my airlive router with OPNsense running on thin client, and MagicMirror simply started working again. One thing i noticed is slightly better latency on the internet. And pihole is still running on that same Pi.

    @CurlyQ12391 I think at the moment it’s better to rebuild backup your mm config see my backup script https://github.com/sdetweil/MagicMirror-backup-restore it will save the config.js, css, and a list of all the module urls and can use GitHub to store and version that all run from GitHub no required download

    @mbalmer this is an electron thing not a magic mirror thing. they don’t disclose what they save and what conditions allow it to be changed. it originally worked just like you proposed change it in config and then it worked right but then they changed something in electron without telling anybody MagicMirror does not cache anything

    @matt216 Yes there are a bunch of modules impacted by us removing libraries from the base so you have to carefully look at the error messages to see what libraries were missing and which modules were impacted as well see this for general process of fixing missing libs https://forum.magicmirror.builders/topic/15778/fix-for-black-screen-in-2-16-and-later
