                      Mykle1, your project is an inspiration for this other old man (62) in the Netherlands.
                      The RPI is running, old monitor is found, so I can start the project!
                      It will take a lot of reading and searching!

                          Thanks to you and Michael Teeuw the MM is the best project for RPI I have ever seen.
                          I appreciate your interest and help.
                          I just succeeded in adding a MMM (Earth)( happy me!).
                          Things that do not work up till now: MM does not start automatically and I still have to find out how to combine two Calendars.

                            I am also from the netherlands, and started my first RPI one week ago.
                            I just finished configuring the MM to my likings (only half a day work).

                            THANK YOU so much for making this project so easy !

                            If Peter wants to get in contact with me , he can, maybey we can help eachother. (i am 49 years old, center Holland)

                              That is, without a doubt, the nicest and coolest thing anyone has ever said to me here. However, MT deserves all the credit.

                                  @Mykle1 Thanks for the Calendar; I will try that.
                                  Autostart: I followed the instructions several times, but it does not work.
                                  It will work one day …
                                  Isn’t this what makes a project so nice to work on: trying until the magic happens?

                                    Pay particular attention to this line:

                                    PM2 will now show you a command you need to execute.

                                    Most people miss this step. You have to execute the command that appears.

                                    And lastly, you have to save the PM2 state

                                        Hello,

                                        Superb work, as usual :)

                                        Could you point me to how to put this system in place?

                                        Having already installed the open-jarvis solution, I do not know if it would create a conflict or if I have to adapt your solution via jarvis voice recognition.

                                        Thank you in advance, truthfully yours,

                                          This is my own personal project at the moment. It involves many, many modifications to the MMM-voice module and any module that will be used in conjunction with it. I only just recently got it working to some satisfaction but I am still working on it. It’s going to take some time before I am done with it because I hope to add more features to it. I’ll keep you posted.

                                          It may create a conflict for you and jarvis voice when all is said and done.
