Black screen after some hours
-
Same Problem here. New MagicMirror Setup with a Raspberry Pi 2 and USB-Wifi.
The Error Message is similar. It seems to lost the Internet Connection and the screen goes blank/black.
No Solution so far. -
Same behavior on RPI3, black screen after few hours, I’ve tried almost all version of electron described on the linked thread, no workaround found.
-
Same here. I turned down the updatenotification module. See if this helps. Will keep you posted.
-
3rd day. No black screen anymore. I think we identified the root cause.

I’ll give it a try and remove the update module. But it will take some more days since I’m traveling over the weekend… -
I’ve already disabled the update notification module, nothing has changed.
-
For me it runs stable since removing the update module.
-
I updated our mirror to 2.4.1 about 2 weeks ago… since the new software is running we don’t see black screen anymore…
-
Running 2.4.1 and getting the black screen after some time. Pi is still accessible and PM2 restart mm makes it work again.
How do you disable the update notification module? -
@carstend - Just remove it from your
config.js
. Take out everything between the{...}
that surrounds the notification module and save the file. Restart the MagicMirror process and you should be good to go.
