Trying to update node.js fails

sdetweil

@thad fun times

edit package.json and add

--disable-gpu

between the node_modules/electron and the js/electron.js

on the start statement

on my phone so hard to build good statement result… like this…

"start":"DISPLAY=${DISPLAY:=:0}./node_modules/.bin/electron --disable-gpu js/electron.js"

@sdetweil

Looking good. Right at an hour with no restarts.

sdetweil

@thad what pi is this? and what os?

lsb_release -a

will show the os release info

thad

@sdetweil

It’s a pi4 running Raspbian release 10.

sdetweil

@thad release 10, is that buster or bullseye?

pi4, 2,4,8 gig?

thad

@sdetweil

It’s buster and I believe the pi4 is a 2GB model.

sdetweil

@thad do

uname - a

so I can see if legacy buster or real…

free -m

will tell u how much memory
