      Hi Guys,

      first kudos to all of you. The Magic Mirror is great. However, I have a problem with the module of the PIR sensor. I installed the mirror with the standard modules and it worked right away.

      Now I have integrated the PIR sensor module according to the instructions. When I start the mirror,I see only a completely white screen.

      What am I doing wrong or what can be wrong.

      If I do not write the module in the config.js, the mirror works again without problems.

      Thanks and best regards
      HanSolo

        On my tv simply issuing

        tvservice -p

        wouldn’t work as it does on my monitor/mirror resulting in a white screen. Adding

        fbset -depth 8 
fbset -g 1920 1080 1920 1080  16

        solved it for me…

          If you start the magic mirror with “npm start” in the console, do you see any error messages?

MagicMirror will not quit, but it might be a good idea to check why this happened. Maybe no internet connection?
If you think this really is an issue, please open an issue on GitHub: https://github.com/MichMich/MagicMirror/issues

                    @zam https://github.com/paviro/MMM-PIR-Sensor/issues/9 looks like it’s a problem with the library

                            @Bangee so after the change of the library you still get Error: Module version mismatch. Expected 49, got 48.?

                                        @Bangee so doesn’t the new version work now?

                                        We're all stories in the end. Just make it a good one, eh?
