I’ve tried to clone it, buT

Any idea?

@schlomm
That looks really good !!
I’ll install it tonight and test it out.
Thank you very much for your help!

@schlomm

@schlomm - great !

Hi Sam,

I haven’t written a module yet and I’m not very familiar with Linux – and even less so with nodejs, css and all the other stuff.
Maybe someone out there would like to try their hand at programming such a module.

Hello everyone,
Is there already a module that always displays the last 20 lines of a log file?
It would be desirable to have parameters for:

• the number of lines to be displayed
• the log file specification (including the complete path)
• the option to adjust the font size

Example
{
module: ‘MMM-Log’,
position: ‘bottom_center’,
config: {
log: ‘/var/log/syslog’,
lines: 20,
fontsize: ‘12’,
maxWidth: ‘25%’, // Sizes the window
}
},
Thank you for your tips and advice.

@Ray
You are absolutely right. I’m assuming you’ve tried other API providers in the US, right?

Hi all,

i use the api of tankerkoenig.de

Hi Ray,

it’s still working for me.

Maybe they have already switched off version 2.5. Weekend … ??

Excerpt from an email from Open weather:
”We would like to inform you that we started One Call 2.5 deprecation, and your access to the product will be stopped on November 4, 2024. We would like to inform you that we started One Call 2.5 deprecation, and your access to the product will be stopped on November 4, 2024."

Hmm, you are on Bookworm, right?
Maybe this helps: https://forums.raspberrypi.com/viewtopic.php?t=358689

@lkthomas

Give this a try:
in /boot/config.txt
change

dtoverlay=vc4-kms-v3d

to

dtoverlay=vc4-fkms-v3d 

then
vcgencmd display_power 1
vcgencmd display_power 0

@sdetweil
Many thanks for the adjustments.
Now it looks good.

@sdetweil
Unfortunately not quite :disappointed_face:
Now the age from the current month is no longer correct
Same bdl.csv as above

@sdetweil
Ok, that works.
With my “old” mirror this also worked when the right mirror was working, but this workaround is sufficient for me.
Thank you

Raspberry Pi 3b with Bullseye

Before Christmas, I decided to completely rebuild my MagicMirror.
The mirror works fine so far, but now I have the problem that I can no longer start and see the MM as another instance on my PC - it worked before on my old mirror.

Here is the output when I try to start the MM with “npm start”:

chef@pi5:~/MagicMirror $ lsb_release -d

Any ideas?

@sdetweil
Hmm, but now something is wrong with the calculation of the age.
I have the following bdl.csv:

birth, name
08/01/1940,aaa 84
10/01/1963,bbb 61
15/01/1964,ccc 60
05/02/1964,Oliver 60
06/02/1974,Frank 50

and the result (made via my cell phone, as I can’t currently get the MagicMirror to start on my PC (mstsc)):

The birthdays from the coming month are now 1 year “too young”.

@sdetweil

Maybe other idea for “day/month”?

Possible?

@sdetweil

Excellent - 5 stars for you!
Great job!

Jens

@sdetweil

One more request/question:
Could you add the month as a picture?
If you set this option “currentMonthOnly: false” (which I find very good), then a month without an entry can lead to misunderstandings.

Example:
We have January and no entry for January in the bdl.csv.
But on February 10.
This would look like the next birthday is now on January 10, right?
In this respect, is it possible to display the month as well?
