I am using your mmm-pages. I just haven’t gotten that involved in it yet…
I know sooner or later I will definitely take advantage of the different amounts of viewable content.

I have had that problem before and it was a bad card. One other time it was a bad USB drive… Might try a different sdcard. -
RE: Made a birthday module
@cgillinger
As Sam said b it stays on the screen always. Just the message though.
Sorry it annoys you so.
Take your time I am not in a hurry, never am.
Just thought I would let you know. I am sure others are watching this to add to their pages too… -
RE: Schedule restart MagicMirror
My crontab -e looks like this.
00 08 * * * pm2 restart mm
30 21 * * * pm2 stop allI have my background set to black and the desktop bar set to black, and the smallest icon size so when the pm2 stop all runs it looks like a blacked out screen with a few little bitty icons showing for walking around in the dark night light.
Then in the morning it restarts mm. This way it is not running the SSD or memory card all night adding to the read write times. -
Mirror Freezing
I have updated everything trying to get past this.
I installed a real time clock.
Fresh install of Debian 12
Fresh install of MagicMirror and restore with Sam’s backup/restore script.
So everything is fresh. I am running this on a NVME ssd stick.
very fast.
Ok since i gave you all the background.
Here is the problem I am having.
MM will run fine for hours, then all the sudden MM freezes, the time stops and it stays on the page that the time freezes on.
I have about 40 different modules running and they run great until the freeze up happens.
Below is the errors I am getting in the pm2 logs.0|mm | [2048:0303/182231.302189:ERROR:gles2_cmd_decoder_passthrough.cc(928)] ContextResult::kFatalFailure: fail_if_major_perf_caveat + swiftshader 0|mm | [2048:0303/182231.339696:ERROR:gles2_cmd_decoder_passthrough.cc(928)] ContextResult::kFatalFailure: fail_if_major_perf_caveat + swiftshader 0|mm | [2025-03-03 18:22:33.874] [ERROR] We expected a redirect to guce.yahoo.com, but got https://finance.yahoo.com/quote/AAPL/ 0|mm | [2025-03-03 18:22:33.875] [ERROR] We'll try to continue anyway - you can safely ignore this if the request succeeds 0|mm | /home/pi/MagicMirror/node modules/electron/dist/electron exited with signal SIGINT 0|mm | [3690:0304/064512.174017:ERROR:gbm_wrapper.cc(74)] Failed to get fd for plane.: No such file or directory (2) 0|mm | [3690:0304/064512.174366:ERROR:gbm_wrapper.cc(257)] Failed to export buffer to dma_buf: No such file or directory (2)
These repeat over and over for 20 or so times. I didnt count them.

RE: Mirror Freezing
Oh and I can ssh in and run date and the time is correct.
If I run MM in a separate browser on my laptop I pops up and runs fine and very clean. Time is correct. ect. which then causes the MM on the wall to start working again…
I did run your update script with force tonight when I came home and it had been frozen for approx. 3.5 hrs.
I am currently watching to see if it freezes again. so frustrating. -
RE: Mirror Freezing
@sdetweil
Just did a kill 1998 and it is now not showing up but the mirror is still working,
I guess I will wait until one of the modules doesn’t work anymore.
Then i will know which one to remove, right?
Turns out that was the wireless connection I think.
MM stopped and I can not access it through ssh time to POPO.
I will keep after this but I will also stop globe in the config.js. just to see if that helps.
Thanks for your help I have learned alot tonight about the way debian and MM run.
