      @sdetweil I use VNC viewer pretty much all of the time to access this and nothing happens. I do see the green light occasionally flash on the pi when I try with the keyboard hooked up to it & my tv.

          So I am still getting this about every 3-5 days. I have now playing on spotify and am wondering if that is the issue. Dark Sky is my weather app but the issue I had with the number of requests is not an issue any more. Curious as to why this happens. At the same time I can see the screen via my remote module

                  @motdog so, some module crashed… the old updateNotofication module might still be the cause… is that enabled in config?

                    @sdetweil yes. I will delete it and see what happens. Typically its been every 3-5 days. I haven’t updated this version to the new software, should I or should I leave it alone?

                        @sdetweil thanks, that’s what I thought. I am starting a second mirror for me that when I installed MM was the new version automatically it seems.
