@plainbroke so, I would be carefull… newer code doesn’t run on jesse and gosh knows what you have now…

4 OS releases back (2017), stretch , buster, bullseye, now bookworm

so, you have an 8gig machine, but can only use 2gig (32bit OS)

@sdetweil
Sorry it is buster, it is the last one that allows the rstp modules I like so much…

@plainbroke said in MM loading all modules is taking 2-3 minutes.:

armv7

32bit

aaarch64 is 64 bit

@sdetweil
Can I load the 64bit version without reloading all my MagicMirror modules ect?
I tried this :

cd ~/MagicMirror
export external_browser=midori
export ELECTRON_DISABLE_GPU=1
DISPLAY=:0 npm start

[sdetweil]

@plainbroke you have to use my start script to make Midori work, after you install it

change the package json {“start” line to {“start1”

then add a new start line

{"start":"./run-start.sh"},

and download the run-start.sh from my script repo, and put it in the MagicMirror folder, mark it executable
chmod +x run-start.sh

@sdetweil
Which one of the package.json files the one before MagicMirror folder or the one in the MagicMirror folder?

[sdetweil]

@plainbroke in the MagicMirror folder

there should not be one in the folder before

[plainbroke]

@sdetweil
Well I removed the package.json and packagelock.json from the folder MagicMirror sets in and ran your upgrade script and my MM loaded a whole lot faster and only time will tell if it is totally fixed or not…
I appreciate your patients dealing with this issue.
I will definitely add it to my saved stuff.
I would like to try to use a different browser and see if it fixes a few other issues since I am using a 32 bit OS.
