So this is what I’ve done and it solved it…

I took your sudo modprobe bcm2835-v4l2 and entered before I started the mirror and no more error so I started the mirror in dev and it was registering movement…Great!

So I closed the mirror and restarted… same error, driver not loaded…

so I did this in case of a power out,e tc…in a terminal window:

sudo crontab -e

Enter this on the last line:

@reboot sudo modprobe bcm2835-v4l2

Saved and exited.
Reboot
Restart mirror in dev mode
NO error and tracks movement
close mirror and restart in dev
NO error and tracks movement.

PROBLEM SOLVED!! Thank you guys for being patient!! It’s working.

@SvenSommer said in stronger Raspberry Pi 3 Alternatives:

@cowboysdude
I just updated the summary post, could you please check, if there is everything correct?!

   Operating System Support:

    Windows 10*
    Windows 8.1*
    Windows 7
    64-bit supported only

Under that I would also put Linux… I’m running Unbuntu on the machine currently which makes it much easier to run MM :)

Interesting… I could add this to the MMM-Mail to play a sound when a new email comes in… nice :)

Description:
This is a simple advice module that offers common sense everyday things…
Works off of your language setting in your config.js

Version 1.0.0

That should work for you :)
Instead of News Source I put the author as the news source doesn’t change.

Just install xscreensaver and turn it off.

@sgtwtf

My solution was to install xscreensaver and use the desktop control panel to disable the screensaver.

sudo apt-get install xscreensaver
sudo reboot
On reboot open the desktop start menu (via the GUI, not the terminal) and I think it’s Preferences > Screensaver Settings. There’s an option to set (and disable) the screensaver. It worked for me. :)

Well here’s step 1 for my big mirror… I wanted something stronger then a PI so here is my mini-itx in its new home… Cooling is NOT an issue… it’s about 13" square and about 3 inches tall :) Easy to put out of the way … NOW to build a frame for the ‘display’… Coming soon!

HERE is how it all stays cool…this fan is totally SILENT… LOVE IT!
