@zdenek in the magicmirror folder, usually /home/pi/MagicMirror

@wtidwell said in electron performance:

Can you think of anything dumb i didn’t do once it’s installed? Like change a config file or anything?

No, it SHOULD work with the default installation, and then some. As you can see from this topic other people have had this problem and sorted it out. I just don’t understand your particular circumstance.

I hate to keep throwing suggestions at you but perhaps you can try an SD card that does not have a U rating at all, like the one I posted in the other topic? And you formatted the card using the suggestions I posted as well? I’m trying to think of something, anything that might help you.

@rudibarani the command you used to install MM is deprecated.

Use bash -c "$(curl -sL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/MichMich/MagicMirror/master/installers/raspberry.sh)" instead.

I hope, i´m right here.

Yesterday I start my Pi after about 8 month the first time. At the last shutdown in the past everything works fine. Now I think, ok the first thing I have to do, was updating… At first I update my raspian. Everything works fine. Then i change into my MAgicMirror folder and write gitpull and then npm install. the system works a lot, and then i restart my pi… But the my magic mirror only shows a black screen and no error. I try everything I can remember. but nothing. A start whit npm start dev didn´t work too (It produce a white screen and the error “Can not conect”. In searching errors I found some warnings from npm about lifecircle and grunt-jsonlint.

Have anybody the same issue? Or can help me?

I am happy because I have create a image of my sd card before that so I could some steps back… :-)

Greets and many thanks

Magic Mirror cannot start when MMM-Sounds configs are in config.js. I get a black screen and nothing more. I try with only that module in config.js, same thing. Delete the MMM-Sounds module, reinstalled it, same thing again.
Here the log. Thanks for your help.

Sorry for the new topic and many thanks for the information!

Hi, I used icaltogcal and this worked for me, up until the point where i tried to update to 2.1.1 and blew up my MagicMirror… but give that a shot.

Just want to notify you that this issue has been solved in the latest commit in the develop-branch.

Hi there, so I am not having any luck loading in my Outlook 365 calendar. I’ve tried it with a Google Calendar and that works but not for an the Outlook calendar… it stays stuck at Loading.

Anyone have any solutions they may have tried?

I also don’t want to export/import it into gCal since there’s currently problems with both services synching properly.

THIS is the setup that worked GREAT for me:

Really - even someone like me could not mess it up.

Hi broberg!

Thanks again for your help!

It’s working now. It was only due to the vnc viewer connection - this caused a space or resolution error. On the TFT screen everything’s fine!
But good to know where I can play with the CSS options…

Thanks again and kind regards,
Dominik

Hi, this is simple. I found in custom.css the comment

Changes to this files will be ignored by GIT.

Is already added in gitignore file. if I modified this appear in your changes to stage on git. Well, is really not ignore. Suggestions?

@nobita MMM-Mobile is for his app he is making

@jcbriones

Did you modify the event? Maybe something to do with this?

@wewa00 Have you tried enable auto login?
Can be configured with raspi-config.

Turns out when it updated, the bottom line got deleted for some reason. you know, the one preceded by “/*************** DO NOT EDIT THE LINE BELOW ***************/”…

So i aded the lines again and it works. :-)

As I wrote about some here, it seems that the update checker has a Git dependency. (I haven’t looked at the code that carefully, please forgive me if that assumption is wrong.)

Normally this would not be a problem if you follow the install directions directly as they specify running a git clone command so naturally you must have Git. But I did it using the GitHub Desktop option, and someone could certainly use the Download As ZIP option from GitHub.com too.

I don’t really care too much since they program still runs and I have figured out how to get rid of the exception that it causes. But I thought I might pose two questions:

Should there be a note in the manual install instructions that Git on your path is a requirement? Should there be a Git dependency in the first place for checking for updates?

@DazDavid Yeah, I messed up with the CIDR notation for IPv6. The reason why “/24” works is because that gives you practically every IP (especially every IP4 address). If you want to just have 192.168.X.0 - 192.168.X.255 whitelisted, you should use "::ffff:192.168.X.1/120".

I added a HOWTO guide here to help out everyone.
