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. :)

@docmucki

I suspect you need to execute

npm install

From ~/MagicMirror/modules/MMM-RandomBackground rather than ~/MagicMirror/modules.

Try:

cd MMM-RandomBackground
npm install

Howdy, I’m John. I’m a 35 year old punk rock nerd living in Las Vegas, NV.

I play in a band and own and operate a commercial recording studio. I’ve always been a computer guy and studied C++ in high school, 15+ years ago.

I don’t consider myself a particularly skilled craftsman, so I recruited a good friend to help with assembly. He is a general contractor with access to tools and knowledge of how to build a professional looking frame. I think we’re going to attempt our first monitor debezel this weekend. We are very excited!

Thank you so much for creating this resource, and thanks to all the folks that have shared! I’m still trying to refresh and update my programming knowledge - hopefully I’ll be able to contribute to this shared information in the near future.

@Achatos

Are you running pm2? If so,

pm2 restart mm

will restart your mirror software. Otherwise use

DISPLAY=:0 npm start

from the MagicMirror folder and it will start up.

EDIT: Just realized this last suggestion is only applicable if you don’t have the MM software already running.

@kurt

You’re missing a } here

{
              module: "MMM-WienerLinien",
              position: "top_left",
              config: {
                   api_key: "xxxxxxxxxxx",
                   stations: ["142", "141"],
},

should be

{
              module: "MMM-WienerLinien",
              position: "top_left",
              config: {
                   api_key: "xxxxxxxxxxx",
                   stations: ["142", "141"],
              }
},

Could be other issues, but check that out first :)

Looks like you may be missing a close bracket. Try this:

                    module: 'calendar',
                    header: 'Calender',
                    position: 'top_left',
                    config: {
                            calendars: [
                                    {
                                            symbol: 'calendar-check-o ',
                                            url: 'webcal://www.calendarlabs.com/templates/ical/US-Holidays.ics'
                                    },
                                    {
                                            url: 'htpps://calendar.google.com/calendar/ical/ME%40gmail.com/public/basic.ics'
                                    },
                                    {
                                            url: 'https://calendar.google.com/calendar/ical/WIFE%40gmail.com/public/basic.ics'
                                    },
                            ],
                    }
            }

@JbeesonMagic16

add a comma here:

                                    {
                                            url: 'https://calendar.google.com/calendar/ical/WIFE%40gmail.com/public/basic.ics'
                                    },
                            ],
                    }
            }
            {
                    module: 'compliments',
                    position: 'lower_third'

so it looks like this

                                    {
                                            url: 'https://calendar.google.com/calendar/ical/WIFE%40gmail.com/public/basic.ics'
                                    },
                            ],
                    }
            },
            {
                    module: 'compliments',
                    position: 'lower_third'

See if that solves it.

Hopefully we’ll have a new feed from GOES-16 soon as well!

Loving the update so far. But I’m experiencing a couple small bugs. On re-boot I am losing my active/hidden module settings. I get the “Done” confirmation after Saving, but on reboot it’s showing all modules rather than just the ones I had active. I’m also getting “! Error!” when I attempt Power > Restart MagicMirror2.

Remote-Control is one of my favs. Happy to check some logs anything that may help isolate the problem.
