    • RE: MagicMirror on Pi Zero W

      @holotfi2003 I’ve switched now to a RPI3, also for performance reasons. I can’t say if I will test again with the zero… it would be nicer though, thanks to smaller size.

    • RE: How I got my Magic Mirror working on a Raspberry Pi 0 (zero)

      @Andrius-ok said in How I got my Magic Mirror working on a Raspberry Pi 0 (zero):

      Hi @lasharor , my apologies. Yes I have forgotten, very sorry was on long vacation.
      So there is my MM image with Chromium for Raspberry Pi Zero W

      https://www.dropbox.com/sh/kdo5q1pxjluca49/AACvP81YjZik6R90BHZNiSZ5a?dl=0

      note: you have to configure WiFi by yoursefl and also all modules to work properly in Yours language.

      Thanks! Worked nice, until I updated and Chromium 56 (or so) got installed.
      That version can’t connect (for whatever reason) connect to http://localhost:8080/.
      Because of this, I had to change the file /home/pi/startMirror.sh and replace the word localhost with the word 127.0.0.1 and reboot.
      Now it’s working again :)

      Next thing I’m going to try is to update the MagicMirror installation.
      Thanks for your image!

      Update1:
      In my case the webserver was not accessible over the network, even after adding my client IP address to the /home/pi/MagicMirror/config/config.js file. This file is in the beginning not there, so first create a copy of the sample file:

      cp /home/pi/MagicMirror/config/config.js.sample /home/pi/MagicMirror/config/config.js
      

      After that, edit the file and replace the word localhost with 0.0.0.0. Also don’t forget to edit the ipWhitelist.
      Found here: https://forum.magicmirror.builders/topic/5446/ipwhitelist-still-not-working/4

      Still having just a white blank screen on my PI, but with the web browser from another pc it’s working :)

    • RE: MagicMirror on Pi Zero W

      I’m currently trying to do this with Debian Stretch, but the noobs image.
      Anyway, the update.rc (command 18) doesn’t work here correctly, because they switched to systemd instead of system-V. There is no error, but the command doesn’t get added to the startup.
      Replace the file content from step 14 to:

      #! /bin/bash
      ### BEGIN INIT INFO
      # Provides:          startMagicMirror
      # Required-Start:    $all
      # Required-Stop:
      # Default-Start:     2 3 4 5
      # Default-Stop:
      # Short-Description: Start MagicMirror software
      ### END INIT INFO
      cd /home/pi/MagicMirror
      node serveronly &
      sleep 45
      sudo xinit /home/pi/startMidori.sh
      

      After this, replace the command 18 with:

      sudo systemctl enable startMagicMirror.sh
      

      This should lead to the following output:

      startMagicMirror.sh.service is not a native service, redirecting to systemd-sysv-install.
      Executing: /lib/systemd/systemd-sysv-install enable startMagicMirror.sh
      

      After this continue with the manual.

      It currently only shows a white screen in my case, but I have just started and maybe that’s even normal, haven’t gotten that far yet in the manual.
