      @richard238 i copied your config above to my system
      and it starts ok…

      my node/npm are

      node -v
      v16.1.0
      npm -v
      7.24.2

      so, lets try that , we will use the node version of node version manager (nvm) called n

      # install n globally
      npm i n -g 
      # install node version 16.1.0
      n i 16.1.0
      # use the setup path from node version install
      PATH="$PATH"
      # verify node and npm versions
      node -v
      npm -v

        run those from
        pi@magicmirror:~/MagicMirror $

        or

        pi@magicmirror:~ $

        Or, does it not matter?

              pi@magicmirror:~ $ npm -v
              7.11.2
              

              NPM is different to yours, but OK to try?

                No, took me a while to restore one back from archive, but it’s there now, ready to go.

                in the config folder is the config.js.sample file which is what I wanted you to use
                just to eliminate other things,

                but

                cd ~/MagicMirror
                npm start
                

                may have to clean and nom install again as node version changed…
