Not working for me either :) But thank you for trying. Hopefully we will see a solution, my mirror is only on between certain times (with a Google Home routine and Sonoff switch) and the white bg is super annoying.

as part of every update, we run some automated tests… one step is to check if all the terms used in the default modules have translations for all the supported languages… we have not kept up with the overall updates

so, any of you that have the skill and energy can update a language file in the MagicMirror/translations folder
here is the list reported , as reported in issue https://github.com/MichMich/MagicMirror/issues/1843

for example
Missing Translations for language fi: PRECIP,UPDATE_INFO_MULTIPLE,UPDATE_INFO_SINGLE

so, stuff (3 things) is missing from MagicMirror/translations/fi.json
if u look at en.json, u will see the base list, and how they are coded.

so, u can update as many files as u like and send them to me (same userid as here on gmail)
and I will collect them and make a pull request. with your name next to all that you provide.
or u can fork the repo and edit as many files as u can, and create your own pull request back.

thank you for all who can help

@lavolp3 one could just erase the files… its just a lot to learn for the newer folks, who are already swamped…

@sdetweil

Glad it was that simple a fix and not the Pi itself. :thumbsup:

I added a check for textmode os config (no xwindows)

try the updater script… lets get it tested

https://forum.magicmirror.builders/topic/10859/new-update-upgrade-script-ready-for-testing

watchdog has a problem… removing… have not crashed since increase swap space…

will close for now as I work on the watchdog socket problem

@mieserwicht yeh, had to escape the - on -dpms… try again

adding again, yes, it got an empty result due to the error

I have submitted this script as part of pull request 1789

@sdetweil

I’m just going to rebuild. I’ll let you know if I hit any snags. Thanks again.

nice article for connecting Apple retina displays to SBC like Raspberry pi

see my post containing link to the new script

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

@sdetweil oh thx for the fast answer ….

there is a new alexa skill to view the live feed from a ring (doorbell, floodlight) camera… on an Echo Show…

I’d like to put that on my MM…

SO, the workaround… NEVER call updateDom() without a minimum count of 2 (as the code divides by 2 inside)
it does a hide/update/show) (hide/show each get 1/2 the time specified, ie 2/2 =1 each.

SO… the problem is the calculation uses the local hour to determine from now… but users see days…

so the fix is to truncate NOW to the start of the day…, then the comparison is start of day to start of day…

instead of this

// uses hours/mins/seconds of now.. timeWrapper.innerHTML = this.capFirst(moment(event.startDate, “x”).fromNow());

do this

// uses only date, time is 00:00:00, fullday events also start at 00:00:00 timeWrapper.innerHTML = this.capFirst(moment(event.startDate, "x").from(moment().format("YYYYMMDD")));

@sdetweil I am aware of that, but somehow I just ignored it as I was “on auto-pilot”. :grinning_face_with_sweat:

@lavolp3 i do not… there are tons of options, which I guess you would expect.

we see a LOT of new users having trouble with unintended syntax errors in config.js.
they don’t know, and MM is running happily without their changes…

so, I want to propose adding the call to tests/configs/check_config.js as part of the error handling…

this was easy, except… MM keeps running with the default config… which it shouldn’t…

I’ve tried all kind of things… process.exit(0); is quick death… except the output of the tests/configs/check_config.js isn’t flushed, so the messages don’t show up…

they took out process.stdout.flush() a long time ago…

none of the workarounds appear to work…

anyone got any ideas?

thanks…
