Blank screen when Running Magic Mirror on Raspian and RP3.

@Mykle1 Yeah I realize that, however I do not get any “modules” to load. Here is the output from the command and I ran the install of electron as sudo and checked to see if any of the permissions changed. However I didn’t get any errors when I ran it under “sudo”

pi@pi314159:~/MagicMirror $ sudo npm install electron

You’ll certainly have to update node and npm. I had similar problems when I did a manual install on a laptop and updating those cleared things up for me.

Mine:

`Mykle@Mykle-Desktop MINGW32 ~/MagicMirror
$ node --version
v6.10.2

Mykle@Mykle-Desktop MINGW32 ~/MagicMirror
$ npm --version
3.10.10
