@sdetweil Thanks for the info. It doesn’t seem to be affecting anything so I’ll just leave it and see how the next version works.

Thanks.

Hi,

I’m getting an RPi3 setup to run MM. Everything seems to be working, but if I watched the text that scrolls by when I launch it, there are a bunch of errors in there.

Can anyone tell me what these error means and if they are anything to be concerned about?

Thanks

Hi,
I had MM setup on my laptop, but I picked up an RPi3 from someone who wasn’t using theirs. I went through the steps here:
https://docs.magicmirror.builders/getting-started/installation.html

I’m using the “Lite” build of the version from the RPi Installer.

The first issue I had is that Git does not appear to get installed, so when I got to step 2, it didn’t work. I had to manually install Git, which isn’t in the instructions (might want to add that).

Anyway, I then went through the rest of the steps, but ran into a problem when I tried to start MM. After running npm run start, I got this:

> magicmirror@2.25.0 start
> DISPLAY="${DISPLAY:=:0}" ./node_modules/.bin/electron js/electron.js

/home/kelemvor/MagicMirror/node_modules/electron/dist/electron: error while loading shared libraries: libatk-1.0.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Is there something I need to do to install whatever libatk is?

Thanks.

@KristjanESPERANTO Can this be used without interacting directly with the MM? Can I do something on a computer to get the recipe to show up on the MM?

Hi,

Similar to those modules that show interesting things or facts about today, I thought it’d be neat to show a list of people who were born on this day. Doing a Google search for “Born on this day” finds tons of websites with the info. Some of them have people in random order with lots of people you’ve never heard of. I did find this one that seems to have them ordered by popularity which is nice.
https://www.thefamouspeople.com/famous-people-born-today.php

I have no idea how it works to get that info into a MM.

Anyway, there ya go.

@MMRIZE thanks for the info. I don’t even know how modules get updated or how I know when a module needs to be updated. Do I need to subscribe to the GitHub page or can I turn on auto updates or anything like that?

@BKeyport Thanks. I’m using the “mywordoftheday” module. I put in a max-width 400px and it seemed to do the trick.
Thanks.

HI.
Maybe there’s some CSS to fix this, but when I changed the calendar to use Sunday as the first day of the week (firstDayOfWeek: 0), it moved the days over, but didn’t move the colors. Saturday should be Blue and Sunday should be Red. In my calendar, the color of the days inside the calendar are correct. However, the colors of the headings are not. Is there a way to fix that?

Thanks.

Hi,

I’m envisioning using MM as a Family Dashboard in/near our kitchen. I’m wondering if there a way to also use it as a cookbook when making dinner. If I have a website that has a recipe I’m trying to follow, would there be any way to put that website up on the screen? I’m open to any brainstorming but need it to be easy so my wife and kids could use it.

If I could “Cast” a webpage to a module, that would be great, but I haven’t found one of those.
Is there a way to display a static webpage in a module, and I could just have an empty page unless I save the web page to a certain file in my OneDrive or something, and then MM could show it?
I could take a screenshot of the recipe, save it as a certain file, in a certain location, and MM could show it if that file exists. If not, it’d just show nothing?

I don’t know. Really just wondering if this is possible in any way that anyone has come up with.

Thanks!

Hi,

I am trying the WordOfTheDay Module and am having an issue. I have it set to top_right, but it’s displaying really wide and is spanning across the entire screen. It’s actually resizing the right column as my weather module is also spanning across the screen as well. Is there something I need to do to force it to stay on the right?

Thanks.
