calendar fetch goes wrong and gpu process error

[bugsounet]

@karsten13 don’t forget: node_helper use node version installed on system ;)
and node v20.9.0 i used on module core
—> So: fetch calandar use node version installed on system (node v21.x)

we checked this on a github issue, 5-6 months ago

@bugsounet no… this is why we have the electron-rebuild problem…

in electron mode, we have the embedded node engine… (all the work is done from inside the electron binary)

		"start": "DISPLAY=\"${DISPLAY:=:0}\" ./node_modules/.bin/electron js/electron.js",

and need electron rebuild to match the binary level

in server only mode we need the npm rebuild to get to match the node version binary level

		"server": "node ./serveronly",

use on-off, or gpio… different compiles if they are different

this is a good reason to keep the the nodejs versions in sync

make them not syncd and switch between full and server only and you will see the binary level error

took my brain a while to see this
