Yeah, I’m just really stubborn im this old age I getting to… Still bound and determined to get it to run on Windows somehow!!!

I may be 75 or 90 by the time I figure it out, But, I ain’t giving up!!! :smiling_face_with_horns:

@maxbachmann

You need to put a Chevy Bowtie around that!

Is that an image, or what?

@maxbachmann

You will have better luck with the Windows Developer than Windows 10.
But, you may have problems with the Atom CPU.
Which is from my experiences…
I have not tried it on Ubuntu or any other OS besides Windows. I did try Widows Developer, But the computer I was using just wasn’t strong enough to run it.

I have tried Windows 7 and windows 10 on several different types of laptops and desktops. And it really does make a difference making sure you always have the latest updates, and you will need a beefy CPU and more than 4gb RAM. I have an older SFF Lenovo desktop and it’s maxed out on the CPU and RAN it can have, and the more I work on it, the more I have to reboot to clear memory as it locks up. But, if I have MM running, and absolutely nothing else, it runs pretty smooth. Same experiences with a couple laptops, with So-So cpu’s and 4 gb max RAM. I also attempted to run MM on a Surface RT, it doesn’t allow any applications other than what it came with, so, as expected, wouldn’t work. I do know of a person running MM on a Surface Pro 15.6" Tablet PC, don’t know the specs, but he says he doesn’t have any problems with it. I also know of a person trying it on an Ubuntu Laptop, but he is having problems getting it to run at all. I would help him, but he knows more about Ubuntu and the Linux-Based OS’s than I do.

I also had MM on an HP All-In-One, with maxed out CPU and 16gb RAM, and an Asus laptop with the latest Core-i7 CPU and 16gb RAM, and they run very smooth, even if I’m running other applications, surfing the web, making changes to MM and restarting it several times, I had no problems with it. I also had no issues using it on a Lenovo 14" 360 laptop with a core-i3 CPU and 8gb RAM.

I had it going on a Nexxus 10.1" tablet running Windows 10, but it was extremely slow… I had nothing on this 32gb tablet with a 32gb micro SD except a stripped down version of Win 10 and the Mirror. and it was just too slow. if I remember right, it only had 2gb RAM.

And yes, Mykle is very correct about the voice issue. I’m am still researching on what may be available for running voice and facial recognition with Windows. but as of right now, I have tried several different types of modules and applications. have yet to find anything that works, YET!!!

When you get it installed on your Atom device, I would definitely like to know your outcome!

Put something like this…

.region.top.left {
    width: 768px;
}

.region.top.center {
    width: 768px;
}

.region.top.right {
    width: 384px;
}

.region.bottom.left {
    width: 960px;
}

.region.bottom.right {
    width: 960px;
}

in your custom.css file. I would venture to think it should work, tested it out on my laptop, and it seemed to be what you might be wanting,

to get the number of pixels needed, I multiplied my screen resolution by .40 (40%) and .20 (20%). Then I divided my screen res width by 2 to get the 50% in pixels.

IE: my screen res for total width is 1920px. Thus 1920 X .40 = 768, giving me the top_left and top_center amounts.
then I multiplied 1920 X .20 to get the top_right amount. then to get the 2 bottom amounts, I divided 1920 /2 = 960.

@hrishim

This is a good place to start. I still had problems, but the forums are very helpful. Good Luck!!

And you should have run-start.sh in the main MagicMirror folder… If not, probably need to First, unhide file extensions, if it’s still not there, the reinstall MM from new.

hope it helps!!!

you can use zoom in your custom .css file…

to zoom out, and make the modules smaller, use a number below 100%. IE: 75%

My mirror (unfinished) at 100%…

with the following code in custom.css…

/*****************************************************

 *****************************************************/

 body {
   zoom: 75%;
 }

it looks like this…

to zoom in (make them bigger, use a percentage over 100%, IE: 125%…

my Mirror at 125%…

using the following code in the custom.css…

/*****************************************************

@hriereb

Yes, Love the clock!

I copied the code from there and will see how to incorporate it into a module for the Mirror.

I am currently learning how to do this with a couple modules I am working on myself, so this will give me some more practice!

@justjim1220 LOVE the clock!!! Way Kewl!!! :smiling_face_with_sunglasses:
