RE: Magic Mirror on the Raspberry Pi 1, agonizingly difficult
Now the software is working I have a few more questions:
(Btw I’m running MM in serveronly mode in Chromium.)- How do I make MM auto run when the Pi turns on, disable screensaver and make it fullscreen?
- Should I be concerned that the RPi gets quite hot in operation, especially as it will be in a frame and in constant operation.
- Is it advisable to turn the raspberry pi off (and turn off the magic mirror) by switching it off at the mains, and if not how would I turn it off and on?

Good news!
The config file is (mostly) working (it needed a reboot) and I’ll configure it until I’m satisfied at which point I need to figure out how to keep it fullscreen, disable screen timeout and do the autostart and all that…
In the meantime, thanks to everyone for their help :-D -

@cowboysdude Thanks.
This is the situation:
The default config file is working (I have it backed up) though when I run it in server only the clock and weather work fine, but all the other modules say “Loading…”.
I did try to customise it, but got the “No config file”, so either I have syntax errors or the sources aren’t right…
Talking of, does anyone know of a list of compatible news feeds and the like?
Thanks again -

I’ve got a progress bar that’s progressing slowly, hopefully it will work, though it ma take a while.
