@mitu The first installation was exfat, the second FAT32. The games are showing up now, but I couldn't rename the rom folders. I had to delete the folder in the USB and create a new one, then rename it.
Weird

Ok, also thanks for your help, but I think I'm just gonna reinstall it without the desktop environment

@mitu that fixed the problem and now it’s fully built, thank you

Thanks again @sleve_mcdichael. This will make the identification of the culprit much easier, but there is a catch: I will be away for a few weeks, but will definitely fix this end of June.

I was just asking for the ES version, to test on the same version, not that I was thinking ES has an issue.

After some thinking, I guess my oversight that the gamelists may also reside inside ~/.emulationstation/gamelists/ could be the cause of some if not all issues.

Setting the gamelistFolder to the same as the inputFolder and copy the existing gamelists to the inputFolder (i.e. sibling to the games) could be a workaround. However, it is a guess, I did not verify it by myself.

@pindapoe

I had something similar to this and I had -x and -y arguments in the .commands file that was restricting the size of the video window. Take them out. But yeah, Hypseus all the way....

Whoohoo!

I got it back running once again!

It gave me much joy to see that the save file from the Final Fantasy game I've been playing on handheld showed up as available on my Pi!

I even said in my best hacker voice, "I'm in...." lol

At least I took excellent notes this time around in case another update is ever needed. :)

@Lolonois Tried apt list --installed | grep ^alsa but gave me a "command not found" error

I had to configure Audio Device to that way to make it work in Pi 5, maybe that is the problem with linapple?

You could try enabling manual texture sampling but make sure to use opemGl or else it wont work. That's how i solved it for resident evil 4 and MKDD

How is this related to RetroPie ? If your only usage of the Pi is for Kodi, then I'd recommend you install a Kodi distribution like LibreElec.

@nixzero said in How to save controller configurations to IMG backup?:

Does this provide any clues?

Not really, the Joy2key keyboard messages are ok since they're associated with the runcommand menu and the joy2key utility. However, the fact that there are no disconnects for your physical gamepads means their connection is fine - it's what the dmesg command was used for.

Now the issue is that when I try to configure my xbox controller, a hundred pop-up boxes appear alternating between "connected" and "disconnected."
