<![CDATA[My Mirror reboots for no reason]]>I am using the PIR Sensor on my Mirror and it seems to work fine. But I find that
sometimes the screen will turn on in the middle of the night with no one around.
It will also do a total reboot for no reason at all.

(enter crontab -e at the prompt):

@reboot echo “---- start ----” >> proto.txt
*/5 * * * * date >> proto.txt
*/5 * * * * vcgencmd measure_temp >> proto.txt

That moves the date and the temperature to a file called proto.txt every 5 minutes (and an eyecatcher at the start of the raspberry)

I will install a fan to the Raspberry and see if that solves the problem. Thanks for your help.

It would also suit the PiR that registers a rising temperature.
