      @plainbroke they’re not going to do the work for you, there’s literally a section telling you how to do it yourself. Which bit are you struggling with? Which “equipment” don’t you have?

      @sdetweil Ah, I couldn’t find the folder as it’s not in /.config/labwc/autostart but instead appears to be /usr/share/labwc

      I’ll give that a go! Thank you :D

      @sdetweil The code has seemingly changed

      That didn’t work, but

      wlr-randr --output HDMI-A-1 --transform 90
      
      

      does! Except… when I reboot, the screen goes back to the way it was

    • RE: Can´t rotate my display

      @sdetweil Is it still possible to rotate the screen via the command line? Or must it be done using the desktop? (having the same issue, with the same labwc output, so thought best not to start a new topic)

    • SD Card Full - Can't Install New Modules

      Hi, long time member, first time posting for a while! I’ve set up my MagicMirror installation from scratch, managed to install a handful of modules but now when trying to install MMM-Remote I get an error saying the SD card is full.

      I’ve seen a few similar posts here, but nothing within them is helping me.

      This is the contents of df -h

      in case either of those helps :)

      I installed the 32 bit RaspiOS and used the install script.

      Is there anything I can uninstall to make more space? 4.3GB used within /usr seems extremely high?

    • RE: MMM-SimpleBGSlideshow (yet another background slideshow module)

      @sdetweil Thank you. I can’t get the module working with MMM-Pages.

      This config doesn’t show any images:

      {
      module: ‘MMM-pages’,
      config: {
      modules: [

      				["clock", "MMM-Tools", "MMM-WiFiPassword",
      					"MMM-Fantasy-Premier-League",
      					//"MMM-ImagesPhotos",
      					"MMM-pihole-stats",
      					//	"MMM-TweetsByTimelineOrList", 
      					"MMM-CyanideHappiness",
      					"uploadPics"
      				],
      			
      			["clock", "MMM-Tools", "MMM-WiFiPassword",
      					"MMM-Fantasy-Premier-League",
      					"MMM-ImagesPhotos",
      					"MMM-pihole-stats",
      					//	"MMM-TweetsByTimelineOrList", 
      					"MMM-CyanideHappiness",
      					"uploadPics"
      				],
      			],
      			//last page ^
      			fixed: [],
      			rotationTime: 2500,
      		}
      	},
      

      but this does:

      	{
      		module: 'MMM-pages',
      		config: {
      			modules: [
      			
      				["clock", "MMM-Tools", "MMM-WiFiPassword",
      					"MMM-Fantasy-Premier-League",
      					"MMM-ImagesPhotos",
      					"MMM-pihole-stats",
      					//	"MMM-TweetsByTimelineOrList", 
      					"MMM-CyanideHappiness",
      					"uploadPics"
      				],
      			
      			["clock", "MMM-Tools", "MMM-WiFiPassword",
      					"MMM-Fantasy-Premier-League",
      					"MMM-ImagesPhotos",
      					"MMM-pihole-stats",
      					//	"MMM-TweetsByTimelineOrList", 
      					"MMM-CyanideHappiness",
      					"uploadPics"
      				],
      			],
      			//last page ^
      			fixed: [],
      			rotationTime: 2500,
      		}
      	},
      

      and as you can see, all I am doing is commenting out the module on the first page. I want to be able to have one page where the photos aren’t displayed as it’s very hard to read the other modules…but it seems the module doesn’t allow that?

      How can I help you figure out what is going on so that this can be corrected ?

    • RE: MMM-SimpleBGSlideshow (yet another background slideshow module)

      @sdetweil Ah ok, no worries. On your mirror, do you use the position ‘fullscreen_above’ rather than the default of ‘middle_center’ ?

    • RE: MMM-SimpleBGSlideshow (yet another background slideshow module)

      @sdetweil I’ve just tried out this module and the Readme on your github needs editing to point the installation link (git clone) to your one, rather than the original Github link :) Also, could you update the example in the Readme to detail exactly how to correctly size images? e.g.

      For percentage:

      maxWidth:"50%",
      

      or for pixel dimensions:

      maxWidth:"50",
      

      For novices like myself, it isn’t very clear :)

      I can’t for the life of me get the module to respect the sizes that I specify, it’s always too big, goes off the screen and isn’t central (despite me not changing the default position)

      {
      	module: "MMM-ImagesPhotos",
      	position: "middle_center",
      	config: {
      		opacity: 0.9,
      		animationSpeed: 500,
      		updateInterval: 11000,
      		maxWidth:"50%",
      		maxHeight:"70%",
      		backgroundColor: 'grey',  // not used if fill is true
      		fill: true,   // fill around image with blurred copy of image
      		blur: 10,   // only used if fill is true
      	}
      },

      Does this module stretch images to fit the mirror? The original module had two different options for this, if I recall correctly

      @wuz0ink thank you! so sorry, I didn’t see you had tagged me in your reply. I used it for the last few weeks of the season, after giving it another go (I hadn’t realised you had updated it at the time). I’m guessing no API changes have occurred since June, so it should work fine in August? :D

      @sdetweil said in MMM-Todoist only displays 'Loading...':

      @robertybob that was in the module folder, right? the git checkout?

      did u do a git fetch first, to get the info to the pi

      @sdetweil Hi Sam. Yeah it was in the module folder, but I didn’t realise I had to do git fetch before git checkout (so I haven’t done git fetch at all). Can I simply try those commands, in the correct order, for it to work, or have I messed anything up (and therefore it best I delete and reinstall the module)?

    • MMM-Todoist only displays 'Loading...'

      Hi, is there anyone here who has this module working ok?

      There’s an issue open for this on Github - I’ve run
      git checkout df2d4ff as suggested by people there, however the issue persists. Do I need to git reset after doing this?

      Alternatively, is there a way of cloning a repository up to a particular comit (i.e. the apparent last known working one)?
