@bluestang this should be resolved now. thanks.

Thanks, it is now working on my end.

@crush I was too. AFAIK if you have ps3controller installed and you install sixaxis, then ps3controllergets automatically uninstalled. But seems like installing ps3controller works perfectly after having installed sixaxis.

Forgot the post link. I tried most things listed here even though I’m using an Xbox one Bluetooth controller not a series controller.

Its always the last thing. Must have had some kind of hardware issue. reflashing my ssd has solved any issues. no idea what the original cause was. Some random little glitch is my guess. I was trying to avoid reflashing because of how far along I was in config, but backed it up and restoring it now that the controllers are all working. Thanks for attempting to help me h2805270, i appreciate it.

Got it. Had to open the web developer in Firefox and it just worked.
No clue as to why, but I got my homepage set to categories so I don't get an error and I can logout.

OK, here are some final words:

I tried reinstalling Daphne and Ports emulators, which did nothing I wiped the SD card and started over.

After that, I attempted an experiment: with the RPi shiny and new, I changed the resolution with Raspi-Config and rebooted. The EmulationStation never came back. Apparently, in my case, changing the RetroPie resolution is a death sentence. For any reason, you'll never see your ES again.

Case closed.

@alphabetapie 'quick menu' isn't enough info but i suspect you mean quick menu > options? in which case: https://retropie.org.uk/docs/RetroArch-Core-Options/

Yup, found it. Was in the retroarch-core-options.cfg. Thanks again! Always a super-helpful forum!

@dreamcastkid hi! Sorry i late i dont know what i do but i update the version of retropie and i instaled all the scripts again and is work now

@donut-0 please provide the info request here: https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/3/read-this-first - including a verbose log for this crash

@jorgejohnson72 https://retropie.org.uk/docs/Transferring-Roms

@mitu Thanks for your reply. So I guess I'm stuck then and will need to get some of those I pac boards. Any recommendations on the type I need for the setup to work correctly? I haven't looked into them yet but noticed there were a few options to choose from. Many thanks

@daragon said in Intel NUC 8i5BEK:

EDIT3 (and the last): NEVER and NEVER run an emulator using sudo command, that's why I could not properly configurate my controller - Retropie runs emulators without sudo I suppose...

Ah yes, this might make some sense after all. If you ran it with sudo the first time, the configuration file probably got saved with root ownership or permissions. Then when it runs as the regular pi user from ES, it doesn't have ownership or permission to edit the file most likely. I've seen the Windows version of this snafu before.

@barbudreadmon Yes, the problem was the hiscore.dat file. It turned out that instead of the actual file I did download the github html page containing the file.
Thanks.

Wanted to say THANKS for the "menu_enable_widgets" fix and to share some more info.

First, it was interesting that ROMs were fine and that ATR disks were all failing.

I tracked down the segmentation violation in the /dev/shm/run command.log:

/opt/retropie/supplementary/runcommand/runcommand.sh: line 1283: 31257 Segmentation fault /opt/retropie/emulators/retroarch/bin/retroarch -L /opt/retropie/libretrocores/lr-atari800/atari800_libretro.so --config /opt/retropie/configs/atari800/retroarch.cfg "/home/pi/RetroPie/roms/atari800/Mule.atr" --verbose --appendconfig /dev/shm/retroarch.cfg

I took a look at line 1283:

eval $COMMAND </dev/tty &>>"$LOG"

All this is doing is running the right command, explicitly getting input from the tty, and tying file descriptors to the log.

I ran the command from the console and it worked fine without redirecting STDIN/STDERR. It also worked fine just redirecting STDOUT (fd 1). But every time I redirected STDERR (fd 2), I got a segmentation violation.

Not sure what exactly the widgets have to do with this, but apparently they do. If anybody wants a strace of this I would be happy to provide.

I hope this is helpful, and again, thanks for the fix!

@chameleon1977 Maybe you can try amiberry instead of uae? It’s great and is in active developement. Can really recommend it. Also, if you have access, try WHDLoad files (lha) rather than ADF. it’s really easy and works great with amiberry and retropie.

@headrush69 Thank you sssssssssssssooooooooooooooooooo much headrush!
I have spent the last 2 days digging for this!!
My volume knob, It WORKS!

I literally created an account here just to thank you!

@tuomaspap Sorry for the delay, I never expected a reply. I was able to get it through the wayback machine. I've gone ahead and found a link on github for the pi4, hope it works!

@jedcooper where you looking for the override? please also provide a verbose log and the other info requested here: https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/3/read-this-first

@losernator thanks for the response.
It seems to work.

@Chameleon1977

To know where it is going wrong try to check your log in :
/dev/shm/runcommand.log
