Hi @Ivanov_d ,

Sorry for being late on the reply. Have some busy period…
I will definitely need one, but not exactly sure about the size. If it is not too much to ask, could you give me prices for 90x70 and 80x70 models as well?
How many days to consider for transport?

Hi ivanov,

I am pimping up my 4 years old MM, which currently have a 50x70 plexi glass. I want to make it bigger, and use this time real glass. (the plexi was an experiment, which turned out quite good ;).
The size I am considering is 100x70cm.

Currently there is a black foil on the back of plexi glass, which I’ve added myself after the delivery. It is - obviously - not covering the whole: where the monitor is, there is no black foil.

Is you glass delivered with this foil already attached? Sorry if this is trivial, but I just cannot seems to figure this out on the posts here… You are mentioning in your first post “when sending the foil drawing,…”, so I guess this is what you are talking about. But let’s make this clear ;).

Secondly, is there a way to drill holes on the glass? I mean, can I request holes to be drilled? My plexiglass is screwed to a wooden frame, and I like it pretty much: easy to disassemble the MM, even when it is attached to the wall. So I would like to keep the concept. The 4 screws are covered with a golden metal cup, so they look decent…

And last, but not least, what price should I expect for the 100x70cm glass delivered to the Netherlands?

Regards,
Tamas

Hi!

I am the only one that cannot make the Search button do anything here on the Forums?

I see.

Sounds strange that you have bad performance with Pi4. We all run it on Pi3 without serious problem…
There might be issues with your Pi4, don’t you think?
Or maybe give another distro a try (the one before).

But back to the original question:
I am not into the core of MM, so I cannot really help. I am not sure if you need X server for the MM window…

Why the struggle?
Just install Raspbian, and run MM as described in the howto…

Not sure which module is this, but probably have better luck if you get in touch with the module maintainer.
Mostly the modules are in github (check the clone url of the module), and there can be an issue tracker, or at least an email address of the developer.

I am also quite new here, so I might be mistaken, but I think a module problem best tackled by the developer…
Please dont forget to share the solution once you figured it out, as it could be helpful for the community.

Just some random thoughts:
Are the update/install servers are the same for the 2 RPis?
/etc/apt??? (not sure about the exact path…) is the location of the files that defines the update servers.

Do they gave the same internet access? No problem accessing any website on the problematic one?

Just start a xterm (or any terminal) on the RPi, and type those commands in there. And copy+paste the output of those to the forum.

Maybe you have to execute those from the Magicmirror directory, I am not sure. But if yes, in the xterm you started just type ‘cd MagicMirror’. And after that type those 2 commands.

@shazam23
You have modified files that has not been ‘saved’ in the git database. Type ‘git status’, and it will list those changes.
After that you can decide what to do: keep the changes (in this case use ‘git commit’)
revert or discard the changes (in this case ‘git checkout’ is the command, if I am not mistaken)

Not sure what exactly you try to achieve, but for an update I would use a fresh directory instead. Just create a new one and clone into it…

I think the RPi itself can also draw a ‘black frame’. Search for the term “overlay”. It is a setting in the /boot/config.txt of RPi sdcard.

But probably the css modification above is more elegant…
