I tried to run as suggested and came up with this problem:
WARNING! Could not find config file. Please create one. Starting with default configuration.
What is the default configuration please? Is there a dummy one that I could copy or should I create a config.txt file and let MagicMirror write to it please?

@sean Thanks
It really does need to be a standalone computer then.

I have it installed now. Do you mind me asking some silly questions please?

1. How do I now make it run?
2. Does it take over the computer? Can I still use it with magic mirror in the background?
   I am testing it to see what it is like, hopefully with a view to running it on a computer all the time.
   Thanks

@mykle1 said in Installing on Ubuntu 18.04:

npm install

No I just ran the sh script. Just ran the npm command and found I needed to install. I am now running the npm install command. I’ll let you know.
Thanks for the help.

Complete novice here who thought it would be fun to run on his home computer. Downloaded and unzipped. Ran:

./run-start.sh

And was told electron: command not found.
Where do I go from here please?
Thanks

Hi All

I’m Richard (when Mum is angry with me!) and Rich generally. I’m 57 and yes mum still gets angry with me! I am married with 2 lovely daughters and live in the best part of England called Cornwall. Most of my life is spent outdoors but recently had a heavy duty op for cancer. It worked and I am clear but left with damaged nerves and bladder. Basically I now work 4 hours a day and I am left with a lot more hours to play!
Came across this project and don’t have a clue what to do or how to install on Ubuntu so will ask the question.
My dream would be to own 5 acres and garden, help young people find jobs and play!
