Magic Mirror with Pi4 OS not working with Pi5

@sdetweil Hi Sam,
quick question which came in my mind as reading this:As you might remember, bugsounet left this forum and closed his git-repositories…
As far as I understood your restore mechanism rebuilds the modules from their respective git-repositories.
This is not doable for the described scenario, right?
What to do?
Especially for e.g. MMM-PIR which has extensive dependencies which are installed by some scripts from bugsounet’s git-repo …Thanks for any hint!
Regards,

@rkorell correct. it restores from source repo
someone saved a new repo for mmm-pir (see the 3rd party list)
sadly the modules will die. he made it near impossible to keep them active
you cannot migrate most of them in binary form either.
but i can add messaging in both backup and restore.

@sdetweil said in Magic Mirror with Pi4 OS not working with Pi5:
you cannot migrate
Yeah, that’s what I was afraid of…
Sad!thanks for confirmation anyway!
Ralf -
@rkorell I added an issue to the back/restore repo to track what to do here

@sdetweil Hello, thank you very much, I somehow managed to do that by ‘manually’ copying the modules etc. back. But I still have the following problem. I use an original Raspi keyboard and used to get into the ‘dock’ with the ‘Berry’ key, so that I could call up the terminal and end the MagicMirror with ‘pm2 stop mm’. This no longer works and I can only get out via RealVNC. Do you have a solution for this?
-
@TomOMaley sorry I dont know what you are talking about,
-
@sdetweil The question is, how can I stop MM in order to go back to the grafic desktop?
-
@TomOMaley ctrl-m should minimize
-
@sdetweil Thank you very much Sam, that makes life easier. I didn’t know the key combination.
-
@TomOMaley it’s the same keystroke as Windows
