All the same modules installed and here is the “nmon” result…
To the left is the “Tinker Board” and to the right is the “Raspberry Pi 3”. :)

And here is the module list:
MMM-Chart MMM-Globe MMM-JSONStatusChecker MMM-Memo MMM-ModuleScheduler MMM-Modulebar MMM-MotionEye MMM-MyCommute MMM-ProfileSwitcher MMM-Profilepicture MMM-Remote-Control MMM-Sonos MMM-SystemStats MMM-TextClock MMM-TouchNavigation MMM-WunderGround MMM-cryptocurrency MMM-newsfeedtouch MMM-plex-recently-added calendar_monthly mm-hide-all mmm-suncalc -
@Snille impressive!
-
@Snille MMM-SystemStat should be modified for CPU temperature. ATB write cpu temp on different location.
-
@Sean Yes, I noticed. I actually disabled the MMM-SystemStats module for now. It’s complaining too much in the log. :)

Hi again. Tried another OS called Armbian. I like the “looks” better to start with. So if you are going to use you Tinker Board for something else then being a MM. Maybe it’s a nicer alternative then TinkerOS. But for MM, it’s not. The over all CPU usage is even higher then on the RPi3… Tough, it seems to be X that’s hogging most of the CPU… It’s running XFCE instead of LXDE so, maybe that’s the reason…

If you want to play with even more OS:es you can find lot’s here.

@Snille Have you find
tvserviceequivalent? I cannot find how to turn on/off display programmatically on TB.
Willtvservicebuilding work? -
could use a hand as there doesn’t seem to be much support in the community which is odd!
Got one today, loaded a fresh sd card with a fresh install of their newest os and i can’t get it to boot! It swirls around and around for a while loading different things but eventually just crashing:/ Anyone else have this issue? Power supply?
-
@ranger33 maybe. Over 2.5A is recommended.
-
@Sean Oh, I missed your comment. I have not clue. :) Have not yet tested the turn off stuff. :)
-
@Snille I currently use
xset. it works well. -
Sean, how do you use xset for turning the display on and off? I have set up my tinker board and all works great but the display. I tried to set up a crontab scheduled job with python script but I cannot get it to work. I have a script with “xset dpms force off” in it and it works through cmd window, but I cannot get it to work on a schedule.

@jasondreher
Well, I didn’t try like that, but I think it is related to your python script. How about using shell script forxset dpms force off? -
have you guys also experienced problems with OpenGL? I used the standard MagicMirror install script and did not compile it from scratch:
everything works just fine, but ht pm2_error.log shows this and I assume performance could be increased by solving that
