MagicMirror screen goes black
-
@sdetweil I can’t get to terminal. All I have is black screen with pointer on it. I’m sure it was when I copied a config
-
@motdog ctrl-shift-i
-
Thanks I’ll try in the morning. If I can somehow get to config.js I’ll undo what I did. Appreciate all of your help!
-
@motdog always make sure u have an alternative way into the system. Like ssh from your PC.
-
@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 if you can, ctrl-shift-i to open the developers window and select the console tab…scroll around to see errors…
-
@sdetweil thanks, I will next time. I just hit control c and then reclicked on the MM tab on the desktop and it starts running again
-
@sdetweil got a message that dev tools was disconnected, once page is reloaded dev tools will automatically reconnect
-
@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?
-
@motdog wait
-
@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.
