@Kristianson
did you run git reset --hard and then git pull && npm install

@Kristianson
if you have the same error as @Bob

have you deleted or renamed the readme file under “/home/pi/MagicMirror/modules/default/currentweather/README.md”

@ostfilinchen
but you have deleted them, if not then please delete and try again

@ostfilinchen
what is the error after you have deleted the Readme file

try following

pm2 stop mm

then

git pull && npm install

and then

pm2 restart mm

@ostfilinchen

what error you get, did you run git pull && npm install

I do not know if it is absolutely necessary to stop the service, for me it was obvious to do it

for me it worked without problems as follows

pm2 stop mm

then

git pull && npm install

and then

pm2 restart mm

maybe it works for one or the other

@Mikgabo
To test if it works, you should enter it correctly

to turn off the screen

sudo tvservice -o
or
vcgencmd display_power 0

to turn on the screen

sudo tvservice -p
or
vcgencmd display_power 1

please follow the instructions under 2.2 Using PIR-Script, then your PIR will work too

@chef

If you want to update your MagicMirror² to the latest version, use your terminal to go to your Magic Mirror folder and type the following command:

git pull && npm install

If you changed nothing more than the config or the modules, this should work without any problems. Type git status to see your changes, if there are any, you can reset them with git reset --hard. After that, git pull should be possible.

@Mikgabo said in Help! Probem using PIR Sensor on raspberry pi zero to turn on/off screen:

My major problem is getting my PIR sensor to function properly. I have it working properly on a pi3 but not the zero.
What code did u use for your PIR?

for the Pi Zero use the PIR script from @cruunnerr --> point 2.2 Using PIR script

maybe this is helpful

The very important thing is, that your monitor supports HDMI-CEC or ARC. Otherwise u will not be able to turn it on or off via HDMI.
To reassure you, most monitors do this ;)
To check if it works just go into terminal via ssh and type:

sudo tvservice -o to turn off
sudo tvservice -p to turn on

edit: for some monitors the following commands work better. Please use them if your monitor needs it:

vcgencmd display_power 0 to turn off
vcgencmd display_power 1 to turn on

then a little excitement, add the starter configuration to rpi_install_kalliope.sh, and let the user during the installation choose which language he wants to install

@goncalovsc do not give up so fast

on which system (RPi 2/3 / ZERO) should it be installed, where do you fail, some more information would be helpful

you have to install first and then start with npm install && npm start
