    • RE: Calvin and Hobbs - Adjust screen size?

      @guitartoys
      Try these settings.
      You will probably have to adjust the sizes…
      It fits my 42" TV full screen all directions…

      Custom.css:

      .MMM-CalvinAndHobbes .module-content {
              Margin-top: 10px;
              Margin-left: 10px;
              max-width: 1810px;
              max-height: 1025px;
              width: 1810px;
              height: 1025px;
              overflow: hidden;
      }
      #cahcomiccontent {
              width: 1810px;
              height: 1025px;
      }
      
      

      Config.js:

      {
          module: "MMM-CalvinAndHobbes",
          position: "middle_center",
          config: {
                 invertColors: false,
                 grayScale: false,
                 updateInterval: 7200000,
                 limitComicHeight: -1,
                 maxHeight: "98%"
                    }
          },

    • RE: Can MagicMirror run on other similarily priced hardware?

      @sdetweil
      It only runs a patched version of stretch right now. I am able to do the project I was wanting to do with it… at $55 it is a little pricey and a LOT more work to get running debian, but it is doing the job. Finally found a wireless adapter for the Libre and it is rock steady… Only thing I do not like is I can not seem to get it to boot from a usb drive has to be from sd card…
      Fun little learning experience…

    • RE: Made a birthday module

      @cgillinger
      I installed your module, it does nothing when its turn comes up in MMM-pages.
      I am running Bookworm, MM 2.30 on a Pi 4 8gb. How do I pick the messages?
      Not quite enough information to run this module.
      Please help with the setup…

    • RE: MagicMirror on Trixie

      @sdetweil
      No error message, just black screen on some modules. I am still having some issues with modules just not showing up… Putting that space in, now I get webview and 2 of the iframe modules working. Nixie clock is fighting me for some reason. I just have not had any time to really dig into it the last week or so…

      Does it cost to use the api?
      Do I need any hardware to attach to the Pi or does it pull the information from that website.?

    • RE: MMM-MailMessage feature

      @ge
      You might try MMM-GmailFeed, it allows sound when mail arrives.

      Just set it to

      playSound: true,
      
      

      Not sure what that sound is, because I have no speakers on my MM.

      Thank you all for the information.
      I did not get to use it BUT I will save this information, so I do not have to ask again.
      I woke up this morning and crontab -e had started my MM like old times… It also shutdown MM last night like it used to…
      Tech is great when it does not try to give me a headache, trying to figure it out…

      Thanks again guys for all your help.
      I think I will close this as solved.

    • RE: pm2 doesnt work with crontab

      @sdetweil
      Ok crontab -e worked last night to shutdown MM. So the pm2 stop all worked.
      BUT this morning the pm2 restart mm did nothing.
      I used find to get these:

      /home/pi/MagicMirror/node_modules/.bin/pm2
      /home/pi/MagicMirror/node_modules/pm2
      /home/pi/MagicMirror/node_modules/pm2/bin/pm2
      /home/pi/MagicMirror/node_modules/pm2/lib/templates/logrotate.d/pm2
      /home/pi/MagicMirror/node_modules/pm2/pm2
      /usr/local/bin/pm2
      /usr/local/lib/node_modules/pm2
      /usr/local/lib/node_modules/pm2/bin/pm2
      /usr/local/lib/node_modules/pm2/lib/templates/logrotate.d/pm2
      /usr/local/lib/node_modules/pm2/pm2
      
      

      ANY idea on which one would work better.?
      Here is my current crontab -e

      # Turn off display at 9pm
      00 21 * * 0-6 /usr/local/bin/pm2 stop all >/dev/null >2&1
      # Turn on screen Monday - Friday at 6:45 am
      45 06 * * 1-5 /usr/local/bin/pm2 start mm >/dev/null >2&1
      # Turn on screen Saturday - Sunday at 7:30 am
      30 07 * * 6,0 /usr/local/bin/pm2 start mm >/dev/null >2&1

      @sdetweil
      Thanks for the info I almost pulled down 32 bit.
      It has been interesting to say the least going to trixie.
      Turns out my problem was a failed NVMe drive.
      I thought those things where supposed to last for a LONG long time…
      I did get crontab -e to work with trixie and MM 2.33 not a fun ride, but entertaining. I finally learned how to use bash to make batch style files…
      So not a complete loss of time…
