How I got my Magic Mirror working on a Raspberry Pi 0 (zero)

epi

Hi,
I have Pi1, beend following the guide with the exception of installing latest software.
I was not installing wifi, using wired connection.

So now I’m on step 6
cd /home/pi/
sudo apt-get install git
git clone https://github.com/MichMich/MagicMirror
cd MagicMirror

all good, but on next command sudo npm install getting error message:

pi@raspberrypi:~/MagicMirror $ sudo npm install
/usr/bin/nodejs: relocation error: /usr/bin/nodejs: symbol , version GLIBC_2.4 not defined in file libc.so.6 with link time reference

epi

Anyhow, I did a fresh install and tried this both with the latest and originally mentioned software and it does not work. I think this guide is outdated.

Hello,

I tried running the instructions provided in the guide and I get stuck on running npm install . The error occurs when trying to download electron package. how did you all proceed.

I am running rasbian Stretch lite

How did you upgrade Node ?

@asaxena11

sudo wget http://node-arm.herokuapp.com/node_latest_armhf.deb
sudo dpkg -i node_latest_armhf.deb
sudo apt-get install npm

My problem:
I made fresh installation of whole magic mirror about 2 weeks ago because I had a problem with screen size - have huge black part of screen which is “covering” right modules.
I tried electronOptions, modifiyng the /boot/config.txt and without luck.
I am running 2.4.1 on fresh installation of Stretch Lite
