    • RE: Mehr Komplimente nötig?

      Hi @hubobel
      Thanks for your contribution. I’ll give them a try!
      Allow me to make a side note: Although there are a bunch of people speaking german (including me), it would be great to see your posts in english so everyone could benefit from those :)

      Thanks!

    • RE: Problems with WLAN connectivity - solved

      @rkorell Thanks for all these detailed Information! I’ll setup your scripts on my MagicMirror Instances - I have 6 different ones to manage and at least one has some weird problems - maybe also relating to power issues.

      Thanks und Vielen Dank :)

    • RE: The idea of recommended products/requirements list

      Actually I would love to see such a list for recommended parts. There are so many options and much more things to consider for building a magic mirror (like a good quality mirror, a good and thin monitor, recommendations for shops or simply a “shopping list” for parts you need).

      Yes, @sdetweil ist right. We focus in the software, but actually we would not run ist without the right hardware.

    • RE: "clock" Module shows "some" message

      @sdetweil Thanks for your response! I’ve restarted the whole host system (Raspberry Pi 4) several times and the message is gone.
      Regarding your hint: I’ve actually tried it but hadnt any luck in identifying the correct DOM node. Also searching in the DOM tree for the word didn’t return any item.

      Nevermind: Issue is gone since restarting the whole system :)

    • RE: MMM-OneCallWeather - Wind in Meter pr second??

      It’s not documented in Github README, but you find the needed config in the implementation here

      So…try the following and add the windUnits property.

      {
                  module: "MMM-OneCallWeather",
                  position: "top_right",
                  header: "xxxxxx, // OPDATERET HEADER
                  config: {
                      latitude: "xxxxxx", // OPDATERET LATITUDE
                      longitude: "xxxxx", // OPDATERET LONGITUDE
                      apikey: "xxxxxxx",
                      iconset: "4a",
                      iconsetFormat: "png",
                      units: "metric", // Styrer at vindhastighed er i m/s
                      fade: false,
                      windUnits: "ms" //ADD THIS PROPERTY
                  }
              }

    • RE: Issues with MMM-Button

      @KristjanESPERANTO I set up a fresh MagicMirror instance and checked the https://github.com/MarcLandis/MMM-Buttons repository. As a result I get the same issue:

        syscall: 'write'
      }
      

      …Yesterday evening I tried to fix the issue of not beingable to control the MagicMirror using some buttons. Digged into the original module, asked help of ChatGPT, debugged some functions and as a result I have a running version for Bookworm.
      I’ll try to put this in a Github Repo - will update this thread as soon as I did :)

      @sdetweil You’ve said that I only need to change some settings in the rasp-config. Do you have any additional information what needs to be changed?

    • RE: Need "correct" version of node-libgpiod ....

      @rkorell Thanks for publishing your great module. I already use it and hell yeah - it’s great :)
      I was also able to make the needed modification to my “Buttons”-module using the node-libgpiod package. Main reason why it was not working was the missing postinstall script.

      Thanks and “schöne Grüße” :)

    • RE: install/upgrade scripts updated to detect and use NVM

      @sdetweil Thanks for your effort! For my Magic Mirror Instances I try to use/install the node version installed by MagicMirror, but yeah -“nvm” ist a great tool in the node ecosystem.

      Thanks for your work and the updates script ♥️

    • RE: Problems with WLAN connectivity - solved

      @rkorell Thanks for your Insights! Interesting!
      One question: How you got the idea that the issue is caused by power/energy circumstances?
      Are there any specific logs with those information?

      And yes - it would be great to get an idea of your scripts :)

    • RE: Need "correct" version of node-libgpiod ....

      @rkorell Do have any any resources for your current development? I’m also stucking at a similar problem handling GPIO for buttons using a Raspberry Pi 5.
      Do you have a Github Repository?

    • RE: MagicMirror wakes TV from HDMI-CEC sleep even when set to idle

      Which comand to you use to turn of the monitor? Which OS do you use?
      For controlling the monitor I use wlr-randr --output HDMI-A-1 --off on Raspberry Pi OS Bookworm…

      Actually I’ve set up two mirrors last week. One turns the monitor off without any issues, the other one turns off the monitor, and wakes the monitor a few seconds later. Basically the same issue which you’ve observed.
      I have no clue what makes the difference; maybe I’ve performed a apt-get full-upgrade on the second host, so any changes are applied here…

    • RE: How Do You Remotely Manage and Automate Updates for Multiple MagicMirror Setups?

      Actually your use case is what I am working on the last few weeks. Just to give you some information what I’m doing

      • Setup my own Tailscale VPN using Headscale
        • This gives me the option to access all machine remotely.
      • Setup my own Ansible Server using Semaphore UI
        • This allows me to push changes to the clients.
      • Setup my own Rustdesk Service for remote-screen access
      • Setup “raspberry pi connect” as fallback solution
      • Setup of “kuma uptime” for monitoring all clients

      For the actual (initial) system setup I use:

      • Bash Scripts for initial setup and installations (basiclly what is not done by Ansible)
        • Separated into a “sudo” and “non sudo” script
      • Ansible Playbook for 80% of software installation (Pi-Apps, Headscale-Config, some Helpers like Bash-Extentsions, uninstalling unneeded softwar, enable system services, …)
      • Ansible Playbook for MagicMirror Installation
      • Ansible Playbook for modules installation
      • Ansible Playbook for some CRON Jobs

      There a a couple of things/tasks left, which I need to do manually

      • Preparing the config.js because every MagicMirror installation needs a different one
      • Optimizing the scripts and ansible playbooks. It works for me, but some parameters would be great.
      • Many things I do not remember here :D

      The update process are something which I do not include in the automations. There are too many manual steps and checks to include. Apart from that I’ll try to avoid update as long as I can - never touch a running system ;)
