Work. Thank You. I disconnected the Xbox controller at the USB before reconfiguring so that I wouldn't even detect it.

Verified fixed. Thanks @BuZz !

Thanks for your answer. I have not provide logs because i haven't see how attach the log file. The log file shows the following error:

Thanks.

@tedgruber Details of that box and how to configure it are here:

Yes, the driver to PS3 controller are installed. I deleted the drivers and the bluetooth in raspberry is working again :)

Gamepad SFC30 8bitdo is now vinculated and working and the PS3 gamepad is working with bluetooth and not necessary the driver controller.

Thanks & regards ;) :)

Turns out in Linux, case matters. (I knew this of course. :))

pi@RetroPie-3:~ $ vcgencmd codec_enabled mpg2 mpg2=disabled pi@RetroPie-3:~ $ vcgencmd codec_enabled MPG2 MPG2=enabled

So, yeah. Just another reminder for me to check that stuff first. :)

@caver01 Thanks so much. I will try that again. I think that it what I am running Arkanoid and Tempest on.

Yesterday, I figured out that to use the arrow keys, I have to hold down the control key. So, at least I can use the arrow keys. But, it's not the best solution.

Any help on the joystick issue would be appreciated.

Thank you.

Well, I've solved it myself.
I put it here in case someone serves.

What it does when starting the emulator N64 is to restart the GPIO of the Raspberry Pi and the pins that are configured as output PWM are put to full power.

What I have done to solve it is to insert the following command:

Gpio -g mode 18 pwm

I put it inside the infinite loop that checks the temperature.

I hope that it would be useful to someone.

I had the following error that occurs if you configure a PS3 controller before attempting to configure an 8bitdo gamepad:

Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/dbus/connection.py", line 604, in msg_reply_handler reply_handler(*message.get_args_list(**get_args_opts)) File "/home/osmc/RetroPie-Setup/scriptmodules/supplementary/bluetooth/bluez-simple-agent", line 118, in pair_reply dev_connect(dev_path) File "/home/osmc/RetroPie-Setup/scriptmodules/supplementary/bluetooth/bluez-simple-agent", line 38, in dev_connect dev.Connect() File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/dbus/proxies.py", line 70, in call return self._proxy_method(*args, **keywords) File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/dbus/proxies.py", line 145, in call **keywords) File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/dbus/connection.py", line 651, in call_blocking message, timeout) dbus.exceptions.DBusException: org.bluez.Error.NotAvailable: Operation currently not available

The solution is to remove the PS3 controller driver via the retropie_setup.sh script ([Manage packages] -> [driver]->[ps3controller]->[uninstall/remove]).

Afterward, manually remove all packages/dependencies related to it. Basically any package mentioned in the PS3 controller setup guide:

https://github.com/retropie/retropie-setup/wiki/Setting-up-a-PS3-controller

sudo apt-get --purge remove sixad
sudo apt-get --purge remove sixpair
sudo apt-get --purge remove bluetooth
sudo apt-get --purge remove blueman
sudo apt-get --purge remove bluez-hcidump
sudo apt-get --purge remove checkinstall
sudo apt-get --purge remove libusb-dev
sudo apt-get --purge remove libbluetooth-dev
sudo apt-get --purge remove joystick
sudo apt-get --purge remove pkg-config
sudo apt-get --purge remove python-gobject
sudo apt-get --purge remove bluez-utils
sudo apt-get --purge remove pi-bluetooth

Then,

sudo apt-get install pi-bluetooth

Then follow the normal 8bitdo setup guide:
https://github.com/retropie/retropie-setup/wiki/Setting-up-an-8bitdo-Bluetooth-controller

@columboscoat
You're still quite knowledgeable and helpful though.

Sorry for the trouble man.

@Goose You didn't word anything "wrong" You just haven't supplied any, or at least, very much relevant info. This is a technical forum for users of the software, not the "psychic hotline". Try again.

@mediamogul Ah! Thanks everyone for that info. I was also hoping to increase the buttons you have to press to RESET the game (instead of hotkey+b), but I guess that's not possible yet.

I'm having a similar issue. Thought I'd post here rather than start a new topic, hope that's OK.

My problem is the game starts up and runs fine as long as I leave it in demo mode. The demo loop runs the video and sound just fine. But when I start a game I see Dirk run across the bridge and then the screen goes black. I can hear the game running but can't see anything. By pressing random controls sometimes I'll get the death scene or if I'm lucky, a level I can actually play before it all goes dark again. I've deleted the .dat and parsed many times with the same result.

I'm hoping someone can help me sort this out, thanks. Here's my ls output:

@Carbooja no. see http://commonmark.org/help/ (Three backticks for code blocks)

Ah ok thank you. So basicly i neet to change the command to

subprocess.call("modprobe --first-time -r db9_gpio_rpi", shell=True)

and import the subprocess?!

@herb_fargus

do you live in tualatin?

lol unfortunately no, it's only my first PC PIII(Tualatin) name, that i take as nickname.

Does emulationstation work just from the terminal by typing in emulationstation?

yes it works, but now i have another problem, my sixaxis dont mapping correct, can it be a problem of internal bluetooth in my laptop, i need to use external dongle ? Whith my usb controler it work fine.
