            I agree but that was all I did.
            Installed then disabled making the screen go blank then sudo reboot.

            After reboot I get the error I posted above.

                  @demetry07 for the future, I have a script as part of install to disable screensaver on a lot of systems…
                  its also in the installers folder with 2.10

                  screensaveroff.sh

                    @sdetweil When I ran the install it asked me if I wanted to disable screensaver and I said yes but my screen was still going black over night. I would have to CTRL-Q out then it would run again automatically after a few seconds. Thought installing the screensaver and disabling it would help. Will see after tonight.

                      I spoke to soon. This morning it stopped working again.

                      I ran
                      npm install
                      then
                      sudo reboot
                      then cd ~/MagicMirror
                      then
                      npm start
                      Here are the results

                              Yeah I missed that in the log I see it now. Thanks for the help after updating that Module it’s starting again. Do you have a recommendation for a PIR Module that works better then something else?
