“nah, I shouldn’t have to do that”

True, you should not have to do that but I’m glad you got them working. :thumbsup:

I don’t see anything

I can help you with the border problem. You can add this to your custom.css file and adjust accordingly. It will move the borders of the display inside the frame that is covering them when done correctly. Just play with those values. It should be close already, judging by your pictures.

body {
   margin: 20px;
   height: calc(100% - 40px);
   width: calc(100% - 40px);
 }

I like the whole idea, design and implementation.

I like that module at the bottom left, especially. :thumbsup:

Well done!

@tbs86

Ok, I assume you ran npm start in the MagicMirror directory and received that error. This is a fairly common problem. The installation of dependencies fails at times to install electron properly.

1. From your desktop(GUI) go to MagicMirror/node_modules folder. Inside this folder you will find the electron folder. Delete the electron folder.

2. Now, open a terminal and type cd MagicMirror and enter. Now, in the MagicMirror directory type npm install and enter.

This SHOULD install electron.

hello no it was second time asking how to get this on mini itx pc as said but still get no answer so not sure why no answer

There can be a million reasons why you didn’t get an answer. Who can say why?

With that said, MM can be installed on Pi’s, PC’s, Mac’s. My first mirror is using a Pi3 with the standard Raspbian Jessie out of the box. I have MM installed on a Compaq laptop running uBuntu, a Dell laptop running Windows 7 and my dev machine, also running Windows 7.

You have to manually install things but it does work, and it works better than on a Pi. The mini itx that @cowboysdude mentioned is a brilliant idea, really. It’s small form factor allows it to be placed behind a mirror as you would a Pi, and its raw computing power, speed and graphics far exceeds that of any Pi.

@cowboysdude

Amen brother! :thumbsup:

And lets not forget to read the README files.

Another nice mess . . .

@kelemvor

I don’t think you want the Lite version. Raspbian Desktop, yes.

Some things I’ve been working on ;)

That’s downright classy. The diversity of your modules is outstanding. I especially like the weather at the bottom and the way it is formatted.

Obviously, you’re a freakin guru!
