      Hi guys!

      I am following Xonay Labs tutorial to setup my MagicMirror and I got a problem; I tried to solve it but did not workout…

      In fact in Part V, it shows how to get Chromium automatically start on boot. And so, I have Chromium downloaded, but I can not get it to launch on boot. I copied in the following code into autostart but nothing happens when I save and reboot.

      @xset s off
      @xset -dpms
      @xset s noblank
      @chromium --kiosk --incognito http://localhost
      

      Am I missing something?

      Thank you!

        When you are using the MM2 on github you Can skip that. The New Magic Mirror doesn’t use chromium etc anymore:

        Look at the readme.

        Succes!!

            @MichMich maybe add a note that the tutorial is outdated?

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

              @Flo-lapin best is to start with a clean install of Raspbian Jessy, and follow the instuctions.

              Within An hour you can Have it Running.

                I’ve just installed the whole bundle with the Automatic Installer (much easier indeed)!

                I am having another problem running the MagicMirror, apparently the problem is with electro js/electron.js… I will look around on the forum…

                Thank you so much for your fast answers :)

                    @Wilco89 I am having exactly the same problem as @benjee (see Starting MagicMirror v2 beta [solved]). I am following the thread recommandations by updating the electron. It works now!

                        @paviro that message is already there. OP must have missed it.
