completle new! PI OS and MM!

I reinstall with the restore mode at startup and I reinstall all my mirror from scratch

@charley I get 7. I’m special.

@henry56 You are welcome, sir. Enjoy your MM experience.

I figured this out. the new router uses a different IP structure. 192.168.0.1 where my old router used 192.168.1.1. For some reason the pi connected to the new router but saved the old default gateway. I was able to correct it with the below command. sudo route add default gw 192.168.0.1 dev wlan0

@Sean works good thank you for your support and work

Thanks for the response! Based on that, I went ahead and deleted those guys. I did this: pi@raspberrypi:~ $ sudo rm /var/log/kern* &>/dev/null pi@raspberrypi:~ $ sudo rm /var/log/messages* &>/dev/null …then rebooted and everything came back to life. I’ve now got a little breathing room on my disk: pi@raspberrypi:~ $ df -h Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on /dev/root 13G 11G 1.4G 89% / devtmpfs 333M 0 333M 0% /dev tmpfs 462M 0 462M 0% /dev/shm tmpfs 462M 12M 450M 3% /run tmpfs 5.0M 4.0K 5.0M 1% /run/lock tmpfs 462M 0 462M 0% /sys/fs/cgroup /dev/mmcblk0p6 68M 21M 47M 31% /boot tmpfs 93M 0 93M 0% /run/user/1000 And I guess I need to implement some kind of solution to “rotate my logs” if that’s the correct nomenclature? The question remains: why did this happen? I know one of my modules is kind of noisy in the logs – like it updates once a minute and even though it’s working it sends an error message to the logs every time. But it’s hard to imagine that that one-line error would take up multiple gigs in a couple months. I dunno. Maybe “log rotation” should be addressed in the config instructions?

Problem was in MMM remote control module. Error message disappeared when i disabled it.

Thanks for taking your time providing the solution you found. Very much appreciated

Okay thanks for the answers. I will probably run the serveronly-version on my vServer then.

That was the strange thing. Nothing happend after I connected a keyboard or a mouse to it and pressed any key or wiggled the mouse. I´ll try to install the XScreenSaver and give feedback afterwards. Thanks for your help @all!! P.S.: After half an hour it seems to work. Final check tomorrow, Cheers. P.P.S.: After a night the screen is still on. Thanks for your help. The problem was solved by installing the XScreenSaver and put the pi in “no screen saver mode”.

chek: npm install errors magicmirror@2.4.1 & dbus-deamon is running under the user jcklerk and i start up magicmirror whif root user but still black screen

As a slightly more easy to deal with version, you can just add var server = require("http").Server(app); if(config.useHttps){ var options = { key: fs.readFileSync(path.join(config.httpCertPath, "key.pem")), cert: fs.readFileSync(path.join(config.httpCertPath, "cert.pem")) } server = require("https").Server(options, app); } var io = require("socket.io")(server); in the same server.js file right under the var Server = function(config, callback) { line. In your config.js, you can modify it to be var config = { useHttps: true, httpCertPath: "ABSOLUTE_PATH", } and then you can switch back and forth if you need.

@sean it looks like it’s working today in the morning name was updated. Thank you great work

Problem resolved. I did two things: Moved to the real OpenGL driver, not the fake one. Changed the resolution of the Pi to “Monitor Default” instead of hard-coding to my monitor resolution. I don’t know which of these two did it, but I haven’t experienced the graphical problem since.

@mykle1 Actually, no, not for Lucy, That is well explained! I’m referring to the MMM-page-selector But I switched to MMM-pages which is way better explained and much easier to use! (Thanks @edward-shen for making it so easy and well explained!!! )

@sean said in How to check version of MM: Or you can check version from package.json (in MagicMirror directory) { "name": "magicmirror", "version": "2.4.1", "description": "The open source modular smart mirror platform.", "main": "js/electron.js", "scripts": { ... But it could be different with your current running instance. that worked for me thank you !!

@broberg Hey, I’m an idiot. I took out the parenthesis and fixed it. I’m not a coder by any means, which is why I need people like you. I realize now the meaning of the (), took it out and fixed it. Thank you.
