      HI I’m Chris, 32 Financial Software Specialist (tech support basically) from Newcastle, UK.

      Been a Pi user for about a year I have 3 at present, 1 running a robot coded with Scratch (with my Son 7)
      a Pi zero runing Kodi
      a third in the post …

      Currently aquiring parts to make a magic mirror after reading about in the Magpi Magazine

      My coding experience is so far limited to scratch and i (somehow) figured out a code to connect my pi to my NAS box

    • My first attempt

      Hi all here’s my first attempt, I didn’t build the frame I’m terrible with DIY.

      But I did all the other work,

      Synced to my iphone calendar, Weather is local to me (Newcastle) , I added 2 3rd party modules (soccer and remote control)

    • RE: Few issues

      Hi there,

      thats the post i followed, and have followed twice. The code is saving in the files I.e. the step below all saves and stays in the auto start config but doesnt do anything

      I’m either missing something glaringly obvious …

      Step 3
      Let’s disable the screen saver and screen blanking as well. This needs to be done in two places. First in the autostart configuration:
      ‘sudo nano /etc/xdg/lxsession/LXDE-pi/autostart’

      And add the following to the bottom of the file:

      @xset s noblank
      @xset s off
      @xset -dpms
