  • RE: MMM-ModulesGroupsRotation - simple alternative to MMM-pages

    @lazerclone
    Been using Carousel for a few years now and it works great. You can have pretty much as many modules as you want circulate through with it.
    I would like to have the ability to have each or individual modules timed to stay up longer or shorter time periods, but have not really dove into working out that small issue with carousel…

  • 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…

    @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…

    @chrisfr1976
    @sdetweil
    Thank you both for the help.
    /usr/local/bin/pm2 restart mm
    worked so I set it up to stop now and if (fingers crossed) works.
    I am golden.
    Wonder why I never had to use the full path before?
    Maybe my pm2 path was /home/pi/pm2 before.
    Doesn’t really matter as long as it works, I am a happy camper.
    It works.
    Thank you so much… I will mark this solved.
    Well I would if I could… strange.

    By the way " which pm2 " shows the path that I needed to use in crontab -e

  • RE: MMM-CalvinAndHobbes

    CAN someone help me?
    Calvin and Hobbes is my WIFEs favorite part of my MM.
    My problem is it loads the same comic over and over never changes…
    This started a few months ago.
    I removed it and reinstalled it,
    Then I was getting blank screen saying loading. NEVER DID.
    Then replaced the node_helper.js file with the one from mdiorio’s post above. and it now gets a the same comic instead of just a loading message.
    So then I thought I will remove old version and loaded B3DTech’s
    That sent me back to loading message and never showed a comic.
    Then I went back to the original version from rahultadak then had to reload the node_helper.js and I am back to the same old comic showing all the time…
    PLEASE HELP.
    Thanks in advance to the incredible crew on this site.

    @mdiorio
    Hey bud,
    Can you look at the code again and see if you can fix it not updating the comic daily.
    Maybe it is a API issue, and I need to sign up for it or something. I am not any good at this code stuff, but I really enjoy all the work you and others put into this site…

  • RE: Made a birthday module

    @cgillinger
    Instead of infinite can a time be used in the 2 Duration fields?
    If I set it to the same value as my pages rotate in, I was wondering if that might fix the problem of it over riding into my other pages.?
    Just a thought, but do you think it would work?

    @sdetweil
    Does this still function?
    If so is it better than open weather forcast.?
    I should say is it, more accurate. Open weather said we where supposed to get 15 inches of snow last night, maybe got 1.
    I am kind of disappointed in it lately…
    Looking for something better I guess.

    @sdetweil @karsten13
    Found It

    ps ux | awk '{if($8=="Z") print}'
    pi          1170  0.0  0.0      0     0 ?        Z    16:36   0:00 [xsettingsd] <defunct>
    
    

    What is xsettingsd?
    Should x11 be running with wayland ?
    Seems like a duplicated background app running or do they not do basically the same thing.?

    I did kill the 1166 which turned out to be the parent of the 1170 xsettingsd
    Mirror restarted I assume due to PM2 being involved.
    It restarted MUCH faster than normal. The MMM-Snow is running smoother.
    I guess only time will tell.

    @sdetweil
    Not so sure that it was globe came home today and the same screen was stopped,
    MMM-Dogs and the time was the same 3:37 pm but the real time was 4:30 pm.
    So re-enabled globe and disabled MMM-Dogs to see if it does it again tomorrow…
    I am almost wondering if it isn’t something to do with MMM-birthday-paged.
    It was the last module I remember adding since this started.
    I will slowly figure it out by disabling one module at a time that seems to hog resources.

    By the way what do it mean by zombie in top.?
