This is not working for me on a raspberry pi 3. I have the GL driver installed and working but I get these errors in the console when running the magic mirror.
THREE.WebGLRenderer: Float textures not supported.
THREE.WebGLRenderer: Anisotropic texture filering not supported.
THREE.WebGLRenderer: S3TC compressed textures not supported.It doesn’t crash but it doesn’t display the globe either.

@Eunanibus Welcome to the club LOL At times there’s just no way to know how something is going to react …everyone seems to have different setups… at times this causes issues :)
-
So does that mean some people have this running on their Pi 3? If so I’ll try a fresh build and install this first.
-
@BlackTalon I don’t think so, no. I’m running this on either my development PC, my work desktop or a microPC. Win10 or Ubuntu 16, respectively.
It looks like the electron browser thingy doesn’t support some of the commands used by the module. Possibly. We may need a workaround. Still investigating.

Ok I managed to get this running on a Pi 3. I did sudo apt-get update and sudo apt-get upgrade after installing the driver from raspi-config. Its flickering pretty bad but its running it. I need to pair down some processes on here to see if I can get it to run cleaner.
-
Its hammering the processor on the Pi 3 pretty bad The chip is getting hot. I am going to add a heat sink and a fan to it before I do more. Thanks for your help.

@BlackTalon Interesting. Thanks for figuring out the issue.
Question: I could load this on the Raspberry Pi 3 at the office and then take a video of the end result. Would that be interesting to the community? Or should we just call this a greater-than-raspberry module?
-
@bhepler I am using on my win10 dev machine and unbuntu mini-itx 32" inch mirror so it runs great but yes I’d be interested in the RPI-3 info! :)
-
@Eunanibus : your module name has conflicted with this one MMM-Globe. I suggest you change your Globe module name.

Well, this sucks. I tried to enable the GL drivers on my Raspberry Pi 3 and it crashed the Pi. It installed the drivers, asked me to reboot and then the Pi won’t come back up. I’m going to have to reflash the card and start over.
It’s going to be a long night. If you’re going to try the GL drivers, back up your
config.jsat the very least. Better yet, image your SD card just in case.
