      @massivearts-0 open a terminal window onto the pi

      cd ~/MagicMirror
      npm run check:config
      

      but as I said on discord
      we need to see the messages that are output when u start MagicMirror

      you either do
      npm start
      or pm2 start

      if pm2 then the command to display the logs is
      pm2 logs --lines=100

      the black screen is probably a missing dependency module, and the messages will tell us which one

        Maybe position: ‘position’, is your problem add a location on mirror like “top_left”

          @djboob66 yes, he had “top_Bar” before, but that is not the black screen

          maybe no content displayed as mm can’t figure out where to put it

          system is case sensitive

                @djboob66 yes he did. but the module uses the request library without documenting it in the package.json

                and request was removed from the MagicMirror package in 2.15.

                  @sdetweil how dare they remove libraries in the main program they don’t use anymore! 🤣🤣

                  The "E" in "Javascript" stands for "Easy"

                      Many sub library use again it, it’s very very long to depreciate a library ;)
