@sdetweil must upgrade my spec’s thx again geo

@sdetweil wow! my philosophy is different i will help anyone regardless

@geo I understand the words, but don’t understand why you have this problem. I tested 2.12 on buster a couple weeks ago, again.

hi been using mm for a while just put a new card with noobs to start a new mirror but on boot message saying no vga cable yet the original card is ok.tried with raspian loaded and same prob.
any ideas why this should happen with two latest updates.
cheers,geo

hi when i try to boot mm it shows on the screen init version 2.93 booting.then it runs thro a load of code and the final display is rasbian GNU/Linux 10 rasperryberryPi.tty1 and underneath raspberrypi login but it is not poss to do anything from that point forward.
please can anyone help or my mm is dead in the water.
thx geo

@geo when u boot your pi, do you see the temples on the background? using raspian buster) or do you see a black screen with a command prompt

@geo sounds like the memory card had a problem. clock comes from system .

and if the mirror config isn’t what you expected then it might have reverted to default…

can u ssh into the mirror to examine?

@BD0G hi,great thankyou

@geo - We all went through the same process. You’ll get there.

hi thx i will give it a try
regards

Here is an example of the weather module:

/*.MMM-BMW-DS .header {color: yellow}*/ /* Header color. */ .MMM-BMW-DS .image {width: 5%; height: 5%; margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: -10px; } /* icon size */ .MMM-BMW-DS .current {color: #FFFFFF; font-family: Gloria Hallelujah; font-size: .99em;}/* text forecast color. Default is white. */ .MMM-BMW-DS .summary {color: #FFFFFF; font-family: Gloria Hallelujah; font-size: .99em; display: none; }/* text forecast color. Default is white. */ /* uncomment to hide */ .MMM-BMW-DS .daily {color: #FFFFFF; font-family: Gloria Hallelujah; font-size: .99em; }/* days of the week color. Default is white. */

@geo said in adding default modules to mm screen:

thx for your interest but the command line brings up no such file or directory

Just click on the link? 😕

@geo i can only suggest that for the base system setup, google is your friend… you can find articles about just about anything…

as for MagicMirror… yeh, there is a lot to learn… each module creator gets to specify their own config setup beyond the minimum…

I see that Mykle has posted in your other topic a link to his very good doc.

keep coming back, ask specific questions and I am sure there is someone who can help you

@geo clock takes time from system config. You can change am/pm or 24 hour in the config.js

every module has a config: { … } section in its definition in config.js
each is different, and u need to look at the README.md for each module to determine what settings you need to provide, for it to operate as you wish… some are easy, some are very detailed…

@geo

Is there a question in there somewhere? I will assume that you are at least looking for a tutorial.

This tutorial is for the software side of things. You can search this forum for ideas on how to construct a frame, or use an existing one. Good luck to you.
