TOTAL BEGINNER: Exit Code 512 RPi 3 A+ Black Screen and Countless Issues Downloading and Running MagicMirror
-
Hey all! Brand new to coding and the raspberry pi system. I apologize if this has been asked but my level of knowledge on this makes it difficult to follow on the forums as I have been trying to understand them for the past 2 days. Would love to learn more on how to diagnose on my own and commands/pathways to do so. But right now I need step-by-step help please.
Been enjoying learning some basic coding but getting frustrated as I run into issues either installing dependencies or running the mirror (as it only goes to black screen). I have tried multiple fresh flashes, disabled proxies, toggled OpenGL, but I still cannot run the MagicMirror. I have VNC and SSH enabled and followed all of the manual install steps including updating NPM and nodes. This morning I finally got it all downloaded with no issues except now running it does not work. On running magic mirror, it does not register as a tab “Magic Mirror” but rather just says “Electron”. I get the below error:
b083rt@raspberrypi:~/MagicMirror $ npm run start

@B083Rt where u do npm start, type this in advance
export ELECTRON_DISABLE_GPU=1then execute
npm startthis should turn off the electron use of the gpu chip.
if you use a script, u can add this before it’s npm start
also, run my install script it does all the setup.
flash again then run install
