      Pretty much as the title states, my MagicMirror boots up blank. When I try to pull up localhost:8080, or access it remotely from another computer, it shows up just fine. I ran apt-get update and apt-get upgrade, just in case something was out of whack, but that didn’t help. Anyone else have this issue?

        I ended up just re-installing everything after not even being able to load the sample config.
        It seems to have solved the issue.

            DOH! I deleted the local MagicMirror directory and ran the install script.
