It didn’t work because in the next step of the installation it tries to verify the local folder is a git repository, and fails.

RE: Magic mirror keeps turning blank
When editing this file:
sudo nano /etc/lightdm/lightdm.confThere are TWO versions of statement below something like “SeatDefaults”
xserver-command=X -s 0 -dpms
MAKE SURE YOU ARE BELOW THE SECOND mention of “SeatDefaults”
I spent hours banging my head on this one.

Local file copy to Pi instead of using Github
I’ve been trying to download OpenCV for the facial recognition module, and am running into
RPC failed; result=56, HTTP code = 200, fatal: The remote end hung up unexpectedly.00 GiB | MiB/s, fatal: early EOF, fatal: index-pack failed
This problem is well documented but none of the workarounds succeeded, which has me thinking since I can successfully download it via browser on my laptop, how can I get it to my Pi? Can’t I just copy to the Pi using a USB drive and go on with the install? Is there a specific command the Pi is using to extract a .zip file when we use “git clone”?
