Are you working on your raspberry? Or are you connected via ssh?
If you are connected via ssh you need to run DISPLAY=:0 npm start instead to tell the raspberry to use the display connected to the raspberry instead of the not working ssh connection

Hi Kurt,

before you run npm start you need to change into the right directory. Default would be

cd MagicMirror
npm install
npm start

The npm install command only needs to be run first time after you downloaded the MagicMirror package. If you have already done that you can skip this step.

You can now edit posts forever :)

Yeah, finally :thumbsup_tone1:
I update my module threads yesterday

@tosti007 said in Module about module updates:

@yawns Checked again, it cycles through all the modules except the default modules.

My bad, you are absolutely right. Sorry!

@Goldjunge_Chriz
Köln - Koblenz is 120km one way, which would be okay but not preferred. We only have a VW Fox (Polo size), I don’t feel very comfortable transporting so many mirrors in a small car.
If this is the only safe way I’d do that

@SebTota
cp -r source destination

@ostfilinchen
There is a " missing after passwort

My measurements need to be reduced to 765mm * 765mm
The rest (polished edges, delivery to Cologne) stays the same.

Confirmed with this change.

Sidenote: @Binog would like to share delivery to Cologne with me. So if he confirms his order, then please take this into your calculations ;)

@PhilsterM9 said in Trouble getting it to start:

I am not sure if it is supposed to happen!

Just as a side note: This is linux. No news is good news. By default there is no feedback like “1 file copied”.
If you don’t feel comfortable with the shell you can work on your raspberry directly using the file explorer

I just did a quick test on my laptop.
Edit ~/MagicMirror/css/custom.css and add the following:

.ns-box {
top: 50%;
}

This should move the alert box to the vertical center. You can use the config position @MichMich mentioned to move to the horizontal center.

yes indeed. Thanks @MichMich

Okay, I was able to add my module right now. However now it says it cannot find the readme. This affects all modules, not only mine.

@tosti007 said in Something I’m working on ...:

I cannot upload any modules at all, either with pc (windows, firefox) or android (chrome). Is this currently supposed to be like that (aka disabled) or am i doing something wrong? :) I am on the correct github account and the repositories are public.

I just tried as well. You can click “Step 1 - Select repository” but nothing happens. The console is showing a HTTP500 error:

@tosti007
Well, feel free to change the code and submit a pull request to the original developer and it’s repository.
This way you make it official and everyone can benefit from it. If you just hack the code you would run into trouble if the developer releases an update.

@tosti007 said in WE WANT YOU! [New Moderators]:

@strawberry-3.141 how about yourself? You also seem active and always really helpful!

I would recommend him too, but he is currently working on his bachelor stuff. I could imagine he is really short on time

@olexs
The language in this forum is english. Some users replied in German, maybe because they fear mistakes when writing in a foreign language and not native language.
But we should stick with english, so everyone can follow this thread.

@Squirrel
Yes, I forgot to mention that. You can also press ctrl + c in console to kill the mirror process. So you don’t have to close the terminal every time

Are you working on your raspberry directly? You should be able to switch with alt + tab.

As an alternative you could run node serveronly, open the browser on your own and go to http://localhost:8080

@Binog
I am working in cologne (Bayenthal), so I guess delivery will be cologne. Sure, if this is fine for Chris we can share delivery
