PI Zero module issues for this beginner
-
@sdetweil thank you for the quick reply. I will try your download tomorrow if I get a chance and hopefully have better luck.
-
@wagon40 to install MM again, you will need to rename the current folder out of the way
do this
cd ~ mv MagicMirror MagicMirror.save
-
can you send me the direct script to place in the command line to load your script? I have tried a few bash $( bala bal bal) and im not getting much luck.
I tried to follow this https://forum.magicmirror.builders/topic/9386/installing-on-a-pi-zero/72
but of course it wont start. screen goes to sleep and it only starts for a minute then goes to desktop.
I installed buster with desktop. -
@wagon40 from the page I referenced
bash -c "$(curl -sL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/sdetweil/MagicMirror_scripts/master/raspberry.sh)"
you can do that over ssh, or on the pi monitor terminal session
it will prompt you about autostart with pm2 and turning off screensaver

@sdetweil
all was going well until the dependencies stopped it. tired to send the code using </> or :: but it blanks out the submit button? -

@wagon40 hm… I don’t see that on my pi 0…
And electron is optional, so there should be no need for chrome driver
-
Same issue I had with the other download. any suggestion?

Tried to npm start and it states that i dont have a config.js. went to the desktop and i can navigate to the magicmirror file and open the config sample. not sure why it isnt loading? did a reboot and it is not starting MM.
