I went ahead and reinstalled the modified version over top again, and it's working right now. I wonder what causes it to lose it's functionality by simply updating some scripts...

@Waylander oh I see what you mean now.

@Lyle_JP my bad. This is my first retropie build and i totally glossed over that folder. thank you for the help

I had the same issue when I was using my upboard
Doing this

@StarLord64 you're welcome 😉

Ah! Found it! Thanks guys

it's ok, actualy the fact it's a single c file makes it easier to read
and is a good start for me if I want to tweak or so

I just found ridiculous to use bluetooth while the controller and the pi are in the same box
like most people do (and writing python cos they are too lazy)

you gave a great option to dig in :-)

@mediamogul Thank you. I'm just wondering if using xboxdrv and taking this approach might fix the struggles I'm having getting jfroco's atari800 changes that support the 5200 controller to work.

I'll go read up and investigate it further and share what I find. Thanks again!

@markyh444
I understand and can see how this can get out of hand in regards to correct people to discuss support with once folks start mixing together bits and pieces from several areas. Hopefully this post will be a notice for others to not bombard you guys. I appreciate the incredible work you've all done and great community support!

@Concat
The 2nd one is closer to the correct format but not sure about the button mapping.

Just run evtest to get the correct mapping.

@sirhenrythe5th Have you added the lines recommended in the above links? You need to post some configs as recommended in https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/3/read-this-first

I solved this myself by just installing LXDE on RetroPie. Might be good to know for other projects though.

@herb_fargus said in Can't find LXDE install option in latest RetroPie:

I updated the FAQ page thanks for the heads up. though if you had looked through a few more options you would have found it ;)

Haha, I found the option last night right after I decided to go ahead and run the manual apt-get commands. Looks like everything's in working order and I've got LMMS running in Pixel. Thanks bro! ^_^

@rbaker it works! thnx

@pawpie you need to describe what you did step by step in terms of connecting to your network. Wireless or ethernet? for example.

Sorry to hijack. I never knew that an alternative fork of the highly complicated A8 emu for retropie existed! Thanx for the info. I will have a try

If you want to run the games from USB you need to edit some settings. I think you didn't do that and thats the reason why it doesn't work. How large is your SD card?
