      Hi all,
      just installed on a Rasberry pi 2 - Raspbian the Magic Mirror v2 beta using automatic script.
      I cannot manage to launch it through SSH nor directly, while launching DISPLAY=:0 nohup npm start & or DISPLAY=:0 npm start, I have following errors:

      pi@mirror2:~/MagicMirror $ DISPLAY=:0 npm start
      
      magicmirror@2.0.0 start /home/pi/MagicMirror
      electron js/electron.js

      npm ERR! There is likely additional logging output above.
      
      npm ERR! Please include the following file with any support request:
      npm ERR!     /home/pi/MagicMirror/npm-debug.log
      

      For info:

      npm v3.8.6

      Thank hou for hou help

        I don’t know if it will help but try installing the pm2 commands. You can find them under auto start.

            @00conman This will not help, since there seems to be an issue with electron.

                @00conman No worries! PM2 is just a tool to keep the process running. If the MM fails/quits, PM2 will restart it.

                    Could you give the electron quick start a try?
                    https://github.com/electron/electron-quick-start

                    If that one doesn’t work either, its an Electron issue.

                        There seems to be an issue with electron on your RPi. Are you sure you are running it on a Pi 2? (And not a B+, they look very much alike…)

                        If so, I suggest you open an issue in the electron repository.
