Read the statement by Michael Teeuw here.
MM and UBUNTU. Made for each other.
-
I know this thread is quite old, hoping @Mykle1 or someone still looks at it.
I followed the instructions and have a MM running on my Acer Revo. However, when I start MagicMirror, all I see is a blank screen. I have pm2 and electron installed, where do I find the logfile to try to track down the issue?
-
@cliff365 is it before adding any modules? or after?
if after see here
https://forum.magicmirror.builders/topic/15778/fix-for-black-screen-in-2-16-and-laterif before do
pm2 stop all pm2 flush pm2 start 0 pm2 logs --lines=50

Thanks @sdetweil , I entered the lines, but I had a bit of a problem getting MM to not restart while I tried to capture the logs. Hope this provides some insight:

@cliff365 this post seems to imply installing as root and running as user or vice versa.
https://forum.magicmirror.builders/topic/8464/back-screan-when-start-up-an-errors
delete the mm folder and use my script
https://github.com/sdetweil/MagicMirror_scripts
do NOT use sudo , and use a normal user, not logon as root

@sdetweil You are amazing! I wish I knew Linux as well I know Windows, but so it goes. Your suggestion worked! Thanks again!
