    • RE: 3 tries 3 fails Raspberry b+

      Ah… Found it thanks to the checking…

      Node.js:339
      Throw err;
      ^

      Error: Cannot find module ‘wtf-8’

      Then a long list of different places that I’m guessing it’s where it’s missing…

      I’ll have a blast at this for a bit. If it continues to fail so absolutely, maybe I’ll have to restart my bluetooth lawnmower project…

      I would go for the pi3 option, but it goes against my eco principles! Spare computer must have a job somewhere!

      Thanks, I’ll try one line at a time and see how things go! Just out of interest though, how much fiddling did it take you? And how did you know the nodes hadn’t downloaded properly?

    • RE: 3 tries 3 fails Raspberry b+

      @Alvinger Really sorry! I’ve swapped to dietpi on fresh install and then follows your fine instructions a few times, clean install x3 at least, but keep getting same error:

      Xinit: giving up
      Xinit: unable to connect to X server: connection refused
      Xinit: server error

      Then it dumps me to the command line…

      Any idea how I’ve screwed up your fine instructions?

      Ta!

    • RE: 3 tries 3 fails Raspberry b+

      Hi Alvinger,
      That sounds exactly what I need thanks, with the only problem being that, being a complete learner, I don’t know what to do with it…

      Do I need to put the scripts into a particular file or just write them into the command line itself?

      On the whole I’ve managed most projects independently thanks to the mighty google and suitable search terms, got my media centre and a pi in my van as a music/film hub, but this is the first thing that’s been a bit more complicated and I’ve failed miserably to this point…

      I’ve been trying to learn this sort of thing for years and just never seem to have the time. I’m a physio by trade, so I don’t even have something close to this as my day job.

      Thanks for your patience!

      Nick

    • RE: 3 tries 3 fails Raspberry b+

      @Mykle1 ho there! I had read this bit too, but, being as I am to programming what a brick is to top flight springboard diving, I’m getting stuck on what parts of the instructions apply to me and which don’t. For example, the npm install comes up with a horrific number of errors, but I don’t know if I actually need it…

      Once I’ve got this working I’ll write it up… I’m sure there’s a while bunch of people who bought the Pi 1 b and have since upgraded!

      I know, but I’ve got a Pi 1 model b. Unfortunately the easy install option is unavailable…

      I’ve got as far as the npm install, but it’s throwing up lots of error in a log file… Any hints?

      I’ve followed the guide from
      http://blog.dylanjpierce.com/raspberrypi/magicmirror/tutorial/2015/12/27/build-a-magic-mirror.html

      And

      http://michaelteeuw.nl/post/83916869600/magic-mirror-part-vi-production-of-the

      And neither work I’m afraid. No error messages, nothing notes a file/programme missing, nada. Just get to the point where it should “work” and nothing happens.

      I’ll try the pi 0 tutorial and see how that goes. It’s just that I have a spare pi b and all parts, and it’s a shame I can’t get it to go…

      Ah. Am I right in thinking the tutorial for the pi 0 will do it? Might get out of bed and have a play…

    • 3 tries 3 fails Raspberry b+

      Ho gang.
      I’m having problems getting this to work on my pi b. I’ve installed raspbian, and the mirror files themselves direct, but can’t get the mirror to start! In not sure if it’s because I’m missing something, missing a step, or just plain shouldn’t be rusted with computers any more!
      Is there a tutorial that’s for the b+ knocking around? I’ve searched and can’t seem to find anything.
      Thanks! Nick
