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…

@lxne
So, is that going to be the API for Dark Sky to run on in 2023?

@sdetweil
Will MM run on Libre Computer Board AML-S905X-CC (Le Potato) 2GB 64-bit Mini Computer they are only $55 on amazon. I think they will run Debian pretty easily.
I am going to try a few other projects with it that I have been wanting to do on a RPi, but they are pretty pricey right now. I thought this was worth a try. If it doesn’t work out, I will try a few of the projects on the support forum they have.

@sdetweil said in Can MagicMirror run on other similarily priced hardware?:

gallium

That looks like a very good option while the Raspberry Pi are so expensive.
I just bought a refurbed chrome book that is in the list supported by gallium.
Going to give gallium a try when it arrives.
Do you know if I could just load debian on the chrome book?
I want to try a few different programs and they all require Debian or Ubuntu…

@sdetweil Does your script work on windows 10 or chrome book???

Thank you all for information. I was upset. I really like the way my Darksky weather module looks on my screen. I guess in march next year I will think about having to change over to something else. Maybe by then someone will make it so the Darksky module works with another weather api…

When will Darksky fail to work anymore.
I have it running now and it works fine.
What am I missing?

@Ray
It was caused by google / gmail forcing 2 step verification down our throats .
The one time use app passwords 16 digit code is a great work around at least.
There are lots of instructions out there on how to use it.

@xadamxk

Thank you for the information, I am still having issues with the list going off the screen. I am trying different areas on the screen to see if that makes a differance.

@xadamxk
You gonna fix this problem for me.? I have done a little research on it and it is way above my pay grade…

@xadamxk
Please do fork and fix it for me

@sdetweil
Thanks I will look into it when i get time. I have carousel working pretty well now. 33 out of the 40 I had working on MM before update to 2.18, so I am plenty happy…

@thephantom_nl
I changed over to omxplayer and solved my problems with it resizing on restart.
I can not find the bookmark for how to install omxplayer. Must have not saved it.
Google it that is what I did…

@sdetweil said in [MMM-GmailFeed] - Simple Gmail unread messages list/notification:

@plainbroke module install instructions

git clone https://github.com/shaneapowell/MMM-GmailFeed.git
cd MMM-GmailFeed
npm install

the GitHub page is the README.MD file

also, if the module has a package.json you need to npm install ( in the new module folder), even if they don’t say so

I did all the npm install and it still did not work until I did the “npm install request” in the MagicMirror/modules folder, that alone fixed almost all my install issues… Could hardly believe something so simple fixed so much… And yes I have been running npm install in all my modules folders just to be safe. That pm2 restart mm && pm2 log lines=50 ( i think that is correct) really made life easier… Thanks to all whom helped with my issue…

@fantasmic78
This is what 2 instances of calendar look like in my carousel setup.

is that what you are trying to do?

@sdetweil
Thanks for looking I was afraid of that. I will put a request in for a hopeful change by the maker…

@sdetweil
Sorry I do not understand what you mean. “define another calendar module”.
I have the events combined right now I really would like them as two seperate calendars. I use carousel remember. My Calendars cover most of the screen.

Re: Default Modules
Is there a way to have 2 calendars I used to have 1 for Birthdays and one for holidays. I simply renamed the default calendar to calendarh and moved it to the moduels folder and in the config.js the config was under calendarh
I also renamed the css and js files for calendarh directory. I had to go in and change a few things in the js and the css. It all worked so nice. now I can not do that for some reason. Any suggestions what I may be doing wrong this time… ?

{
        module: "calendar",
        position: "middle_center",
        header: "Birthdays",
        config: {
                fade: false,
                maximumEntries: 4,
                timeFormat: "absolute",
                urgency: 3,
                getRelative: 24,
                calendars: [
                {
                        symbol: "birthday-cake",
                        url: "https://calendar.google.com
                }
                           ]
                }
},

{
        module: "calendarh",
        position: "middle_center",
        header: "US Holidays",
        config: {
                fade: false,
                maximumEntries: 4,
                timeFormat: "absolute",
                urgency: 3,
                getRelative: 24,
                calendars: [
                {
                        symbol: "h-square",        url:"https://calendar.google.com/calendar/ical/en.usa%23holiday%40group.v.calendar.google.com/public/basic.ics"
                }
                           ]
        }
},

Is there a way to have two columns side by side of output to the screen?
I have more in the module being checked than will fit on the screen in one column.
I have even made the font smaller so I could get the important ones to show.
