@sdetweil Hey Sam
After a longer while absense, I just took your installation script for a new installation on an Pi0.
It worked staright foreward :flexed_biceps:

You made such a great job:ok_hand:! Many thanks!

One short question came just up.
I get a message on my Mirror, that Chromium can’t get updated.
As I have no keybord connected I don’t know how to update and get rid of this message-window

[sdetweil]

@bdream yeh, I don’t like that message either, also no keyboard… haven’t looked at it in a while.

[sdetweil]

@bdream lets try this https://stackoverflow.com/questions/58993181/disable-chromium-can-not-update-chromium-window-notification

if it works, I’ll add it to the installer

[sdetweil]

@sdetweil there is a one liner commands on the last post… this looks good, and I see that the parm is added to the running chromium

sudo touch /etc/chromium-browser/customizations/01-disable-update-check;echo CHROMIUM_FLAGS=\"\$\{CHROMIUM_FLAGS\} --check-for-update-interval=31536000\" | sudo tee /etc/chromium-browser/customizations/01-disable-update-check

[sdetweil]

@bdream I’ve added this to the install and upgrade scripts. thanks for the nudge to work on this

[bdream]

@sdetweil you are my hero! …and faster as police allows :motorcycle:

I have added the statement 01-disable-update-check as mentioned. – and it works. Even “It effectively disables the update check for 1 year, until then a fix should have been distributed.” as mentioned in link text

[sdetweil]

@bdream i can see where they might want to update if its a general purpose web viewer with millions of pages a day of all kinds… in our little viewer world, its a very constrained, fairly generic set of content.

[bdream]

:thumbs_up: you are right, Sam!

[Stoffbeuteluwe]

@sdetweil Hi Sam, do I have to install node and npm first and than install the script or do the script install all this?

Greetings from Germany

[sdetweil]

@stoffbeuteluwe script does it all

[Stoffbeuteluwe]

@sdetweil oh thx for the fast answer ….
