Well, I solved the launching of CGoban thanks to the man startfluxbox like this:

#!/bin/bash exec fluxbox & fbpid=$! sleep 1 { xsetroot -cursor_name left_ptr -fg white -bg black & /usr/games/cgoban } & wait $fbpid

Hope It will help everybody about that kind of games with several windows.

@OpossumQueen Without any context (distro/platform/package) I can't offer any advice. Why din't you start a separate topic instead of necro-bumping an old topic and add the info requested in https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/3/read-this-first to your question ?

Help! :D

@mitu Yes retropie-extras. Ok i will.

@mitu

I use this config file now and it works:

@fuenlamame197303 EDIT: there's no need to post another topic with the same issue, I have merged both your topics into one.

Please post what Raspberry PI kit you have right now, as detailed in https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/3/read-this-first.

Also, post the details about the kit you have bought right now and which you intend to connect to the Pi.

@jg1212 Yes, I'll add the order to the port page.

@abj Thank you, it started working now.

Not sure what was wrong but it works :)

Have a good day !

@abj Thank so much!!!

With the lr-snes9x2010 core, mouse (a cheap usb) is working, click and movements, after i change controls to snes mouse from retroarch menu.

If you can, try with this emulator.

@sleve_mcdichael All great ideas. Thank you all for responding!!

@josdelsan said in SPI connection driver alternatives for ILI9341V display?:

Before I go back to RPI forum, I would like to know where I can read more about how emulationstation GUI is loaded so I can provide some context, otherwise I will be sent back here again.

You can replace EmulationStation with any SDL/non-SDL app that uses a GLES/OpenGL context and you have the same result (i.e. RetroArch or Mame). There's nothing special about EmulationStation and you can achieve the same result with any of GL test applications from the libsdl2-tests, like testgl2 or testgles2 (from /usr/libexec/installed-tests/SDL2/).

@kalaazar11 honestly can't remember, I think in the GUI there was a full screen setting or something like that to hide the cursor

I’m not new to using retropie, but I wanted to add an LCD screen to mine and when I downloaded the drivers through the command line, I tried to type in emulation station to come back. When I did this it gave me an error, I don’t remember what the error was because this happened last year, but it wouldn’t let me back in retropie. I think this could be something wrong with the retropie software that I download, because I think I remember trying to exit the command line on my tv and it not working, but I still don’t want to risk it because I have a lot of saved data on my rpi. Can someone help me?
