Electron Browser outdated?

Would be interesting to see what happens if electron 6 gets installed.
Anybody here ready to give it a try and crash his mirror? :-D

The same happens on my MMM-ISS-Live module. However, in my case, I simply “X” out the message and the module continues to work properly. Yes, you need to be able to click.

Odd, I just quit MM and relaunched and the message did NOT appear this time. Hmmm.

I downloaded a fresh MagicMirror copy, and changed the electron version to “latest”, in package.json
And then did npm install
Default config runs fine

Will try some other modules

Pir, hotword, assistantmk2.

Ubuntu 18.04.2 LTS, Intel,  electron v6.0.10, ok
   node 8.10.0
   npm 6.11.3

Ubuntu 18.04.3 LTS, odroid, electron v6.0.10, ok 
   node 8.10.0 
   npm 6.10.2
   MMM-PIR-Sensor fails, access denied, exportGPIO, /sys/class/gpio/export
   MMM-Hotword, V2, ok. 
   MMM_AssistantMk2, ok

Raspian stretch 9.4, pi V3,  electron v6.0.10, ok
   node 10.6.0
   npm, 6.11.3

so far, testing looks good… not on pi yet tho

@sdetweil pi 3 looks good.

Thanks @sdetweil - changing the electron to latest works fine for me on a Mac Mini. I tested all my modules and did not find glitch so far.
@MichMich: Is there a special reading why you stick to version 3.0.13?

[sdetweil]

@rudibarani cool. can u post the node and npm versions? thanks

[rudibarani]

@sdetweil: I only updated electron without changing npm and node - so I am still using Node v11.6.0 and npm 6.9.0 on my Mac Mini (24/7 since 2009 :slightly_smiling_face:)

[sdetweil]

@rudibarani just wanting to know what the levels were. Thank you
