Im starting to believe it is a google api issue. I have tried to restrict it but at this point i am lost. I also tried to install MMM-Traffic with no success either.

Hello again sdetweil ! So it shows up on the mirror bottom as it should but where it should show the time it shows “error” in red. does show updates in the middle every 10mins or so.

Im just looking for it to work. Show me route times and change colors when there will be a delay.

Hello, I posted this in the My-commute multi page post but no reply after a few days.

I have the module downloaded and the dependencies. I attempted to take out the second work address with no changes. I cannot find anything wrong with my code and my google account shows that it is counting every request. not sure where the issue is. Any help would be great.

{
			module: "MMM-MyCommute",
			position: "bottom_bar",
			config: {
    				apikey: 'google api key',
    				origin: ' Rd, city, state zip',
    				startTime: '00:00',
    				endTime: '23:59',
    				destinations: [
      					{
       				 	destination: ' Ave, city, state zip',
       				 	label: ' Work1',
       				 	mode: 'driving',
        				color: '#82E5AA'
      					},
					{
       				 	destination: ' Ave, city, state zip',
       				 	label: ' Work2',
       				 	mode: 'driving',
        				color: '#82E5AA'
      					},
				]
			}
		},

I checked the apikey and Google is showing a count of apikey request. So that leads me to believe that it is a MM issue or module issue. Any help would be be great.

@sdetweil said in PI Zero module issues for this beginner:

bash -c “$(curl -sL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/sdetweil/MagicMirror_scripts/master/screensaveroff.sh)”

looks like it worked! working on a my-commute issue at this time.

was able to get it to work. only issues is screensaver continues to active.
tried this with no luck

sudo nano /etc/xdg/lxsession/LXDE/autostart

add the following lines:

@xset s noblank
@xset s off
@xset -dpms
Save and close, using the commands CTRL-O and CTRL-X.

Go to lightdm.conf:

sudo nano /etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf

add the following lines:

xserver-command=X -s 0 -dpms

everything else is working time, personnel calendar and weather. my commute shows error in red on the side. does show that it is continuing to update. any suggestion?

    				destinations: [
      					{
       				 	destination: ' Ave, city, state zip',
       				 	label: ' Work1',
       				 	mode: 'driving',
        				color: '#82E5AA'
      					},
					{
       				 	destination: ' Ave, city, state zip',

nothing for install.log. tried a few different ways. I was able to make a copy but just a black screen on npm start up. not sure what to do.
