Thank you so very much for your work.
I did have to restore the original css file from the original builder of this module.
So I could get the full screen to work. Other wise it works so great now.
My wife is very pleased.
Thank you again for your great work…

@sankum said in MMM-Wallpaper - wrong path:
MMM-WallPaper
Is there a MMM-Wallpaper.js in the cd MagicMirror/modules/MMM-Wallpaper folder if so
try
sudo reboot
If not fixed, in the MagicMirror/modules folder use “rm -rf MMM-Wallpaper”
and try the
“git clone https://github.com/kolbyjack/MMM-Wallpaper.git”
again in the MagicMirror/modules folder.
do not forget to do the
cd MMM-Wallpaper
npm install
When it is finished loading.
if that fails you may have a faulty card.
I have had many fail me through out the years.
I went to a small external usb drive to get around that problem.
If none of this works let us know and maybe someone smarter than me will step in.
If this does work for you mark it solved please.
@sdetweil
That is ok, really.
I am burnt out too trying to get it up and running myself.
I am thinking unless someone else wants to put a bunch of time in to figuring out what changed. I am done with this one.
I do appreciate the time you have invested in trying to figure it out…
Thank you very much for your help…
I will mark it resolved.
@sdetweil
Well that brought back the screen I have been stuck on, (that does not update)., I think it is the comic from april 3rd 2025, and now it is scrunched up at the top of my screen instead of filling the screen.
Too weird how that one line does that.
.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;
}
Is what I have had in my custom.css for a long time to show the comic full screen.
That took a lot of tweaking to get just right.
@sdetweil
I am hoping that B3DTech will jump in and help me fix this he had it working for a while. Do you think since it requires a subscription on that page now, that we will not be able to scape the cartoon off of that page anymore?
@dathbe
Cool setup.
Under page 5 you have the json table setup for gas prices.
Can you share the url for the gas prices you use?
When I put this in my browser it takes me to todays calvin and hobbs and works in chrome and edge
https://featureassets.gocomics.com/assets/22449d40fc5e013d9b5b005056a9545d
Do I need to use this in one of the files in the Calvin and hobbs directory?
Lost Calvin and Hobbs,
I have reinstalled per, “git clone https://github.com/rahultadak/MMM-CalvinAndHobbes” .
I get a screen that says loading. So I tried removing and , “git clone https://github.com/B3DTech/MMM-CalvinAndHobbes”
Both just give me a loading screen.
So I redid the first one and added the node_helper.js from the second one.
Don’t remember where I saw to do that but it gives me a comic on the screen from a long while back and never changes.
Any IDEA’s what to do to get the comics back? B3DTechs version doesn’t work for me.
FYI:
I am on the latest of Bookworm 12 and MM v 2.3.1
All the other 25+ modules are working using Sam’s pages module…
Here is my config.js section
{
module: "MMM-CalvinAndHobbes",
position: "middle_center",
config: {
invertColors: false,
grayScale: false,
updateInterval: 200000,
limitComicHeight: -1,
maxHeight: "98%"
}
},
HELP ME I have fallen down a rabbit hole and can’t find the way out…
My wife loves this comic. So please help.
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…
@everyone
Anyone having issues or is this just a me issue?
I am having trouble all the sudden with Calvin and Hobbs showing the same thing each day… Is there an update, I am missing???
@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
Sounds like a spammer to me. Just saying.
@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.?
top - 16:53:44 up 17 min, 3 users, load average: 5.34, 5.15, 3.71

@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…
