@uok825 sorry, dumb of me to take u down the electron path when u don’t have electron.

cd ~/MagicMirror/modules/MMM-PIR
npm rebuild

@uok825 no problem… didn’t need to reinstall module

@uok825 thanks for posting… another troublesome module

0|MagicMir | [2020-07-12 23:06:47.162] [ERROR]  WARNING! Could not load config file. Starting with default configuration. Error found: Error: The module '/home/pi/MagicMirror/modules/MMM-PIR/node_modules/epoll/build/Release/epoll.node'

do

cd ~/MagicMirror
npm install electron-rebuild
cd modules/MMM-PIR
~/MagicMirror/node_modules/.bin/electron-rebuild
pm2 flush

then restart your MM

let me know

@potts-mike install pm2, create a shell script to launch chromium and pass it the url

see the bottom of the run-start.sh I provide for pi0 for the command line syntax
script also provided here
https://github.com/sdetweil/MagicMirror_scripts

@geek_kaushal in one config.js add

electronOptions:{x:????},

where ??? is the width of the screen, to put that mm on the second screen

on my Pi4
it is
electronOptions:{x:3840},

@cgethycx said in MMM-GoogleDriveSlideShow:

rootFolderId: my id is here,

the rules for values in config.js

whatever to the right of : if its numbers (1, or 21.25) or true/false it does not need quotes
if it contains letters or spaces (this is a test, or 232130-1485i2jelnefkhwerh (apikey) it must be quoted,
single or double doesn’t matter as long as start and end are the same.

so, under the rules above
this

 rootFolderId: my id is here,

should be at least

 rootFolderId: 'my id is here',

@xxLulaBelle
like this notice the dash - in front of the r

sudo chown -R pi ~/.npm

@xxLulaBelle look at the help, does it need capital R, not near my computer

@mumblebaj if the config is right that shouldn’t matter

address:"0.0.0.0",
ipWhitelist:[],

the messages seem to indicate he has the latter at least ‘full ipwhitelist’.

if blocked, he should have seen a rejection message.

@atulmahankal. the TV is attached to what? or are you using a browser on a smart TV?
