@sjlurker2018 You can run the following command in a terminal:

cat /dev/slm/runcommand.log

You can access the terminal by pressing F4 in EmulationStation or use SSH.

If you are using the terminal on your Pi, then you can type the command emulationstation to launch ES.

[sjlurker2018]

so do i just type in the command when i open the prompt with f4

[dudleydes]

@sjlurker2018 Yes.

[sjlurker2018]

i wont be able to use ssh because im using a pc in conjuction with my pi

[sjlurker2018]

unfortunately im just getting the response no such file or directory

[dudleydes]

@sjlurker2018 Sorry it should be shm, not slm. The full command should be:

cat /dev/shm/runcommand.log

[sjlurker2018]

ran it in the retropie command prompt /dev/shm/runcommand.log .
access denied????

[dudleydes]

@sjlurker2018 You forgot the command cat before the file name and path as below.

[sjlurker2018]

ok it bought up some errors

[sjlurker2018]

[sjlurker2018]

i needed both cue and binary files to emulate
thankyou

@sjlurker2018 Glad to hear you got everything working. If you have any further questions about PSX or any other emulator, then be sure to check the Docs for info.

You can find the PSX page at: https://retropie.org.uk/docs/Playstation-1/
