                @bradley1982 can you do it another way

                pm2 stop all
                cd ~/MagicMirror
                npm start >somfile.txt 2>&1

                when the black screen happens, ctrl-c on the command window with the npm start in it

                ctrl-q might work on the MM black screen but maybe not

                  @sdetweil Hi Sam

                  Nothing seems to happen when i do the control c however when i do the control q on the blank screen on the MM it bring me back to the config file and the terminal window.

                  bradley@raspberrypi:~ $ pm2 stop all
                  cd ~/MagicMirror
                  npm start >somfile.txt 2>&1

                        this is probably the killer… network error, and not enough error recovery
                        sadly there is no fix for this

                        this one is a module problem that should be reported on the module.
