Hi,

Did you ever find a solution for this in the end?

Cheers

@sleve_mcdichael Awesome, many thanks! I will not bother with it further, then. Not worth the hassle, I reckon.

@wmarcio You should open a separate topic with your system details and a also post a verbose log (use pastebin.com to post it).

Looks like the files (.deb packages) downloaded by apt are corrupted. Try removing them with apt clean or directly removing the .deb files from /var/cache/apt/archives - then installing again the desktop.

@Unknown topic moved.

@Folly I got it, thank you.

@mitu Many thanks.

@mitu If you have any tutorial that even a monkey can follow, I would appreciate it a lot!

Better late then never I suppose

@windg Trying to learn. Never tried fstab before. Didn't realize how dangerous it is....

Decided to bail on exFAT. My guess is it doesn't work?
Also decided I didn't want any more pain :)

so ext4 it is

UUID="8787d0f4-f4ab-4eb7-bbb1-ea77b5b2ea41" /home/pi/RetroPie ext4 nofail,defaults 0 0

Working fine with this.

The main thing that surprised me is I can't boot into linux at all if it can't find the drive. Maybe nofail is a good idea for ALL fstab external drive entries. Dunno. Maybe that only works with ext4 and not vfat?

I'm all set now. Thx.

@mitu I've recompiled it with the SLD1 version and the speed is up again (hooray!) but it doesn't seem to want to output as opengl, so the screen size isn't playing ball again, sadly.

@cyperghost , I have installed your multi_switch.sh script on my setup but it's not working. I've set it up for onoffshim as I'm using a Pimoroni PicadeX hat. If I run the script from the command line, it works as expected, but if I press the power button to shutdown, it doesn't save hi-scores etc. I have just double checked everything and now the Pi has went into a loop of shutting down straight after it executes the script in the first line of autostart.sh. I must be making a mistake somewhere, just darned if I know what I've done wrong!

I've used another SD card to boot up and get access to my setup. Here is my autostart.sh file. I load the script, then use Runcommand to run my chosen emulator and ROM, then finally if I quit out of the emulator, it loads emulationstation.

sudo /home/pi/RetroPie/scripts/multi_switch.sh --onoffshim & /opt/retropie/supplementary/runcommand/runcommand.sh 0 _SYS_ "arcade" "/home/pi/RetroPie/roms/arcade/starwars.zip" wait $1 emulationstation --no-splash #auto

I've removed the sudo command from the first line and I can get back in again. Any ideas on what's going wrong?

@kazuuu
You could install a port from the setup script and it’ll create one for you at /home/pi/RetroPie/roms/ports. I would assume you could just create your own folder there but not sure if there’s anything else that would need to be created for it work? Installing from the script would make sure everything was made and you could always delete the other game after the folder was made.

@Glorytonothing said in Experiencing input lag on lr-PCSX-ReARMed:

aftermarket 5V 2A power supply

could be the issue. do you get any voltage warnings (lightning bolt symbol) in corner of the screen?

please also supply the complete information requested by @mitu’s link - including verbose log.

@mitu Actually it still wasn’t working properly turns out that was only part of the problem. Apparently my retroarch hotkey configs weren’t saving when I quit retroarch so Start+Select wasn’t even set to be the exit emulator buttons. However after enabling “Save configuration on quit”. My settings saved and now it is working fine and dandy!

@andymassey Just remove the transparent plastic holder. Then you will be able to take half of the joystick off. That part has to be rotate by 90 degrees and reassembled. Finally you put the tranpsarent plastic holder back.

@sleve_mcdichael said in Quick Install missing:

Thats correct. Debian 11 (Bullseye) is not yet suppprted. Use this one instead (legacy Debian 10 (Buster) version.) Only Debian 10 (Buster) is supported at this time.

Thanks, I'll build them form source code and I'll report the results here

@retroB-0 I think that ScummVM needs an existing installation of the game to run it, not sure if it supports running from an installer iso/disc (where the files needed are not extracted by the installer and possibly packed/compressed).

@TPR Thanks for reporting back in detail. Good to see it working now. As a courtesy to other users pls mark the subject in the original post with "solved".

@Retro-Arcade-Fan I have seen the product number ‎WDS500G3B0B on the amazon page. This denotes the SATA variant.
