I just had to install npm in the MagicMirror folder!
My test bed for the MagicMirror is running again! :face_with_stuck-out_tongue_winking_eye: :face_with_stuck-out_tongue_winking_eye: :face_with_stuck-out_tongue_winking_eye:

@Mykle1 It is written right on the module page:
“Navigate into your MagicMirror’s modules folder and execute ‘git clone https://github.com/73cirdan/MMM-rainfc’”
So I guess human error is the guilty one here! :confounded_face: :confounded_face: :confounded_face: :face_with_stuck-out_tongue_winking_eye:

@cyberphox
YESSSSSS! That’s what I need!
Thank you for helping me my friend!
:smiling_face_with_open_mouth: :smiling_face_with_open_mouth: :smiling_face_with_open_mouth:

@yep_DD the MagicMirror is running almost 4 hours strait on end now.
I would call that: screensaver disabled!:winking_face:

It works!
I’ve got my pi 3B+ today and installed the magicmirror software right away…and it works right out of the box!

Hi @peter,
I have it set to 2018 hoping it would show last season. I thought 2019 would be empty because that season hasen’t started yet. But here is the module part from my config file (Don’t mind the //. This way I can add the module to the config without causing it to fail):

// {
// module: ‘MMM-Formule1’,
// position: ‘top_right’,
// header: ‘F1 uitslagen’,
// config: {
// calendar: true,
// season: 2018
// }
// },

O…M…G!!! :tired_face: :tired_face: :tired_face: :tired_face: :tired_face: :tired_face: :tired_face: :tired_face:
I see were I did go wrong!
It’s Formula with an A! Not Formule with an E!!!
Feel so stupid right now! :dizzy_face: :dizzy_face: :dizzy_face: :dizzy_face:

On the other hand… THANKS for helping! If I didn’t copy and paste my config file here I would have looked at my config a lot of times thinking what is wrong without realising that it was a typo! :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes: :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes:

Hi there,

Thanks for your reply. Best thing is just to test it with a new clean install of resbian I guess.
I also found this post but after I posted my own question.
I find the possibility of using an app to “shut down” the system also great and hope this also works for an Android device. ;)

I’ll just have to use my breadboard and test it out. But I think I’ll order a Pi zero W for that purpose.
If I screw it up it only costed about €10,- :face_with_tears_of_joy: :rolling_on_the_floor_laughing:

Hi Sam,
That’s indeed what it said: “Installation failed. This probably isn’t a Raspberry Pi 2 or 3…”
or something like that.
But okay… I’ll try and do it manualy then. Hope that works for me :face_with_open_mouth_cold_sweat: …
Getting sweaty hands already just thinking about that…
But hey…It’s not working now anyway…so what have I got to loose!?:nerd_face: :face_with_stuck-out_tongue_winking_eye:

I just came across Mykle1’s guide for installing MM2 on a 32bit Win7 laptop.
I still have a license key for Windows laying around somewere so I have a backup in case MM2 realy can’t run on x86 Raspberry Pi Desktop… but ofcourse I hope it can run on it! :smiling_face_with_open_mouth_smiling_eyes: :smiling_face_with_open_mouth_smiling_eyes:

Hi guys,

Last week I installed Raspberry Pi Desktop on an old netbook (Acer Aspire One D250) I had laying around. And though rasbian is working just fine I can’t install MM2 on it.
The reason I would like to install MM2 on the laptop is to have a platform to test various modules on before installing them on my actual mirror.

Can anyone explain to me why I can’t install it? Or are there way’s to make it work?

" Just comment under my video"

I just did. :smiling_face: :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes:

@thedoorsfanatic
I have seen this modules but I thought it was a inscreen module and not a remote controle via a web interface.
I currently have MMM-Pages to show different modules on different pages. Like on your smartphone. I use 2 ultrasonic sensors to move left and right through the pages.
Have the hardware al in place in the frame since last week and now I’m setting up the MM2 again … because I lost/misplaced my original SD-card… :confounded_face: :confounded_face:
What HAT are you using for the voice control by the way?

@thedoorsfanatic WOW!!! :fearful_face: :fearful_face: WAIT…WHAT???:dizzy_face: :dizzy_face:
That’s you in the youtube vid? And you controle your mirror using a tablet with a webinterface?? HOW??? I want that too!

@Sean :smiling_face_with_open_mouth_cold_sweat: :smiling_face_with_open_mouth_cold_sweat: It’s just I’m not that familiar with doing everything via the command shell. Installing modules via the shell that I can do.
But I haven’t changed the config.js via the shell yet.
is it simple as: “sudo nano /MagicMirror/Config/config.js”?

@Sean Nice!
But it still is commandline correct? No desktop view of the pi.
Seeing this I like to have 1 program that connects to my pi that on a laptop can show me the Pi’s desktop (remote desktop) but on my Android smartphone uses the commandline. Teamviewer has only the remote desktop…and that’s on a smartphone not great. But using the commandline completely is at the moment to much for me.
I do use JuiceSSH on my smartphone When I’m at home) for simple things like checking folders and stuff. But to customize the MM2 I do would like to have a desktop enviroment for now.
But I’ll have a look at this option as well! Thanks for pointing it out! :grinning_face: :thumbs_up: :thumbs_up:

@Sean that dataplicity is only commandline right?
And they also have an app for my smartphone (Android) I see.
Does that mean I can control my Pi (via commandline) from any place in the world?
Without port forwarding? Or does this require port forwarding?

@sdetweil
I didn’t know that Teamviewer could run on a Pi!?!? :astonished_face:
I’ll look into it!
Thanks for the heads-up! :thumbs_up: :thumbs_up:
