    This is getting too weird. Yesterday I had the MM running in dev mode and after I saw the screensaver I moved the mouse and everything came back as normal and no errors in the console. I don’t know why this happens not all the time and with different characteristics everytime.

      @Anthony when the screen went to sleep was the developer window hidden too?

      when my MMM-SleepWake hides all the modules, the Developers console is still on the screen

        In my case when the screen goes to sleep everything is hidden, modules, dev console etc. I see only black screen. Is there any possibility that pi “forgets” the setting to disable the screensaver? I will try to go and change this setting and after put it back again to see if anyhting changes.

            I don’t think that this is the problem but I want to test it just in case.

              At this point, I’m thinking a sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade might be in order. There could be a bug in the Pi’s power management routines.

                I will try this as well but 3 days now the problem does not appear. I haven’t touch anything on my MM and I don’t see the black screen. I will try a sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade although. It is always usefull. Thank you.

                  This is a screenshot of what happened after about half an hour after restarting magic mirror.0_1552744358584_2019-03-16-154428_1366x768_scrot.png

                      @Anthony - That looks like a network outage. The errors show that the NASA module or whatever can’t pull images from the API. And then you lost connection to your mirror.

                      Of course, it could be the Pi shutting off to disconnect the developer tools. Hrm.
