Blank black screen | Noob

Arod192

@KirAsh4 Update Node.js and I’m still having the problem

@KirAsh4 Okay I just changed the language from en to nl (just to see what’ll happen) and now it works!

But now everything is in the “nl” language but when I change it back to “en” the screen is black again

@KirAsh4 Looks like all languages work but when I change the language to en I get a black screen

@KirAsh4 Alright I think I fixed it. What I did was I went into the translations folder and I renamed en.js to en-us.js. After that I went into the config and changed en to en-us.

@Arod192 I can confirm this is a bug. Hardcoding ‘en’ in config.js causes black-screen, however, leaving it as ’ ’ or node serveronly runs fine.

noob here reporting same issue and same workaround works for me.

Exact Same issue and hardware and OS as poster. From a clean build, updated all before running MM auto installer as I thought I had made a mistake my first time around.

“used the automatic installer located here, https://github.com/MichMich/MagicMirror, and followed every step.
I’m using a Raspberry Pi 3 Model B.
I’m running Raspian Jesse 4.4, Node v4.4.3.
The MagicMirror is up-to-date”

server nodeonly -works
npm start -does not

changing ‘en’ to ‘’ in config.js works as a workaround. It will now open in electron.

Odd bug, as I have two different rpi 3s running just fine with 'en' as the value. This makes me wonder … can any of you paste the contents of your ‘/usr/share/X11/locale/’ folder?

$ sudo ls -aF /usr/share/X11/locale/

Hey Everyone,
I was have the same issue. Change from ‘en’ to ’ ’ now it works.
@KirAsh4 this is my “locale” folder.

Thanks.

And in the EN_US.UTF-8 folder? Is there stuff in there?
