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
Gotcha. Thanks.

@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
Sounds like a spammer to me. Just saying.

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.?

@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.

@sdetweil
you are correct electron is hoarding resources.
Is there a way to kill a PID in debian to see what module may be causing this.
1998
1988
and 1949 are top three cpu hogs…

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.

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.

These repeat over and over for 20 or so times. I didnt count them.
