      Try to remove the folder: ~/MagicMirror and use the installer as described on git.
      check this:
      https://github.com/MichMich/MagicMirror

      Manual Installation

      Download and install the latest Node.js version.
Clone the repository and check out the beta branch: git clone https://github.com/MichMich/MagicMirror
Enter the repository: cd ~/MagicMirror
Install and run the app: npm install && npm start

          @EttVenter your node version is damn old you have v0.8 but there is already 7.x

          Please create a github issue if you need help, so I can keep track

            @strawberry-3.141 Oh snap. How the hell did that even happen.

            Ok, again, as a TOTAL n00b. I assume updating that would be a:

            apt-get update" and "apt-get upgrade

            ?

                    Your node is still old. Did you run

                    apt-get update
apt-get upgrade

                    or

                    sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade

                    ? Without sudo (root rights) apt-get will not install anything and just throw out errors.

                      @yawns I ran it with sudo

                      Here’s the result of sudo apt-get upgrade after I ran sudo apt-get update:

                      pi@raspberrypi:~ $ sudo apt-get upgrade
Reading package lists... Done

Calculating upgrade... The following packages were automatically installed and are no longer required:

  chromium-browser libgl1-mesa-dri pprompt rpi-chromium-mods sonic-pi
  xserver-xorg-input-all

                      Then, if I do:

                      git clone https://github.com/MichMich/MagicMirror
cd ~/MagicMirror

                      as suggested above, I’m met with:

                        Very weird indeed. Did you install Jessie or Jessie Lite?
                        If I run the version commands, I get this on my pi:

                        npm -v: 3.10.8
node -v: 6.9.1
nodejs -v: 6.9.1

                        Please try this:

                        sudo apt-get remove nodered -y
sudo apt-get remove nodejs nodejs-legacy -y
sudo apt-get remove npm -y
sudo curl -sL https://deb.nodesource.com/setup_6.x | sudo bash -
sudo apt-get install -y nodejs
node -v
npm -v

                        and then try to run the npm install && npm start again in your MagicMirror folder
