I pulled out another Pi, flashed the OS and installed MM using the script you referenced earlier. It’s working perfectly. I’m still completely baffled. I’ve triple checked on the original SD image - it works as expected on the previous version of MM, but not on the current one… Ah well –

Thank you for taking so much time to look into this, and I am sorry for having wasted so much of your time.

@sdetweil
I’m having some really odd problems with the raspbian install. Starting to wonder about the hardware. It’s a RPi 2B that’s been rock solid for years, but for whatever reason it won’t boot from any newly flashed SD card - though it boots fine from the original.

I have another one in a box somewhere. I’ll pull it out and give it a try – I’d hate to think I’ve wasted your time over flakey hardware – but the fact that the other one is working as expected with the previous MM version makes me think (hope!) that’s not the case.

I’ll definitely keep you posted!

@sdetweil Just wanted to let you know, I’m working on this between other tasks. I’m also prepping for the Thanksgiving holiday tomorrow, so if I don’t get it finished tonight, it may be Friday before I get back with you.

@sdetweil I sent the ics file – forgot to rename it with .txt. Let me know if I need to resend.

If this is a red-herring / rabbit-hole, I apologize in advance. I haven’t done any javascript in 10+ years… all this is sorcery to me. :beaming_face_with_smiling_eyes:

I configured it to allow remote access via a browser on my desktop machine. On the pi running the newer (wrong time) version of MM, the browser displays the correct time, while the pi displays the wrong time. That’s kind of fascinating to me… clearly the browser is calculating the times on its own.

@sdetweil
You’ve probably seen it by now - but I’ve sent you the config.js.

Also, I saw some info about times being correct when viewed on a remote browser. I’ve tried setting the external browser in my “mm.sh” script to both midori and firefox (both are installed). Neither makes a difference.

@sdetweil

I think I can do that. I’ll send it after work.

@sdetweil

I renamed the MagicMirror directory, and re-installed using the install script – iirc that’s what I used initially.

Sadly, no change.

Giving up for now – may poke at it more tomorrow. Thanks again.

@sdetweil I have a script that moves the MM directory to backup, gets rid of the various package-lock.json files, then does a git pull && npm install --only=prod --omit=dev

@sdetweil
Doh!
