Ahhh, okay, that´s an explanation why I have sometimes problems with some modules.

Thank you.

@KirAsh4

I read the instruction and I executed the nmp install in the MagicMirror folder and thought that onoff would be installed automaticly.
But I had to execute npm install onoff extra in the MagicMirror folder to get the module run.

Maybe there should a step 3, that tells you to execute npm install onoff .

Solved the problem…

I hat forgotten to install onoff (pi@raspberrypi:~/MagicMirror $ npm install onoff
)

@strawberry-3.141
I checked the double checked the spelling. Everthing is correct.
The screen stays white…

I tried node serveronly

pi@raspberrypi:~/MagicMirror $ node serveronly

MagicMirror will not quit, but it might be a good idea to check why this happene d. Maybe no internet connection?
If you think this really is an issue, please open an issue on GitHub: https://gi thub.com/MichMich/MagicMirror/issues

Hello,

I have installed the MMM Button. When I restart my PI3 I only get a white screen.
When I uncomment the butten module in the config with //, the screen is after a new start normal.
I have also tried it with a connected and unconneted butten. Always the same.

Has anybody an idea, why I have a white screen?

Hi,
is it possible to show your config.js.
I am interested in how you configure the modules. It would be very nice, if you could.

Sebastain

Okay, thanks for the information. I will try it.

@strawberry-3.141
My understanding is, that the button in your link is only a virtual button. The other button is a physical button. I have no touch screen, so I need a physikal one. With the physical one i could start the video rss stream.

That´s the reason for my question. Is it possible to adopt MM1 modules easily to MM2 or is it a lot of effort.

For examlpe, this guy has a smart mirror witih a speech module, what I also like to have. Smart Mirror
And this guy, his homepage is in german, has an video rss stream from a news magazine, what I like to have. dracary Here you can download his API. His Interface comes from here.
To start the video rss stream a physikal button is needed. Here he explains how to install the button and here you can download his interface with the button.
