Black screen after some hours
-
Same here. I turned down the updatenotification module. See if this helps. Will keep you posted.
-
3rd day. No black screen anymore. I think we identified the root cause.

I’ll give it a try and remove the update module. But it will take some more days since I’m traveling over the weekend… -
I’ve already disabled the update notification module, nothing has changed.
-
For me it runs stable since removing the update module.
-
I updated our mirror to 2.4.1 about 2 weeks ago… since the new software is running we don’t see black screen anymore…
-
Running 2.4.1 and getting the black screen after some time. Pi is still accessible and PM2 restart mm makes it work again.
How do you disable the update notification module? -
@carstend - Just remove it from your
config.js. Take out everything between the{...}that surrounds the notification module and save the file. Restart the MagicMirror process and you should be good to go. -
I have exactly the same problem with my Pi 3, similar error log. After removing the notification module from my config.js and it seems to be workinkg correctly now.
-
Disabling the notification module did not change the problem. I solved it finally by going through (1) removing and (2) reinstalling screensaver and then (3) disabling screensaver again. Even though for me there is no logical explanation doing it that way, the problem has gone away.
