        Maybe i found the problem. I am working on a FHEM module for MM. I changed the config.js and had a wrong module name in it. After reload the screen was black.
        @chase please check your config.js for spelling or json format errors.

          I’ll give it a look over. Also just for reference I followed this tutorial to set it up https://www.reddit.com/r/raspberry_pi/comments/3oktfu/magic_mirror_how_to/

            I couldn’t find anything, but I did find something strange. I pulled my config file out and once again got the please setup your file screen. So I made a copy config file and replaced it’s contents with the sample config file code and reuploaded it. Black screen again. Should that have shown something?

              @chase Yes. The sample config file should at least show you the clock and the basic compliments. If you update it with your openweathermap key it should show you weather. Curious.

              Also, yes the URL should contain the 8080 port.

                I have the same issue. it seems that information is out of range in Midori. Chromium shows everything on the left side.
                Iceweasel works fine. No ideas how to run in full screen mode.
                kweb - black window, nothing.
                From other devices in network works fine.

                  @Kisaua i have the mirror running on a RPi B with Fullscreen Midori. Check your Node version and Midori version.
                  Here is a Midori autostart tutorial with kiosk mode. http://www.benjaminroesner.com/blog/autostart-midori-browser-vollbild-kiosk-mode-via-konsole-ohne-desktop/
