smart touch not interacting on touch

[5hyguy]

Hi Eben and all I am unable to get the smart touch working on magic mirror screen,
the buttons for both the shutdown, restart and bottom buttons don't work.

I have connected my IR hardware to the raspberry pi and that works on the main desktop, but switching to the magic mirror screen no touch event can be registered.

Please help, any hints?

hi this module worked for me

https://github.com/gfischershaw/MMM-Touch

if for any reason the ir frame does not work after plugging.

1. make sure the four sides properly connected together

2. and then re connect to USB port.

number 2 is a major solution every time touch does not work just re connect

see my implementation here

I know I'm late to the party, but I had issues with the reboot button working, but not the shutdown. This was solved by editing the node_helper.js and adding "sudo" to the shutdown command:

require('child_process').exec('sudo shutdown -h now', console.log)

Maybe this will help someone.

Your infrared touch USB, if connected to a PC, such as Windows, will touch function work?
