@BillW did the earphones work?

@BillW dvi does not carry sound so you would need a separate cable

My main computer has dvi, monitor is HDMI. Uses sep cable to monitor

@sdetweil Ok, copied the node_modules/electron folder tree from the good working install to replace the bad… and now the bad behaves…

@sdetweil running node_modules/electron/dist/electron http://cnn.com produces a frame on the host, but there is no content

so, this appears to be an electron problem

I am helping a user debug their system

i can start MM without problems, but… the ui doesn’t not come up

i can access the mirror from my other system thru a browser at its ip address and port just fine…

another instance on MM (my production version) is happy and shows the UI and can be accessed remote as well…

any ideas how to debug?

@costascontis don’t need vnc… just http://mirror_ip:mirror_port

@emrhssla which MM are u working in?

/home/pi/Desktop/Beauty (see its config/config.js
or
/home/pi/Desktop/Beauty/MagicMirror one? (see ITS config/config.js

they are different (u have MagicMirror installed INSIDE a MagicMirror folder)
to fix this, in /home/pi/Desktop/Beauty do

mv MagicMirror ..

now you will have

/home/pi/Desktop/Beauty
and
/home/pi/Desktop/MagicMirror

@emrhssla will advise once I see it myself

@emrhssla also delete the package-lock.json files in the few folders

@emrhssla ok, trying to replicate… moved mine to desktop/MagicMirror and it worked ok,
working on installing that repo
