      i tried to play a megadrive game on Ubuntu Linux, and placed a downloaded rom into '/home/retropie/roms/megadrive', but when i chose a game on emulation station, only black image and game's sound showed up. my screen doesn't change with pushing any buttons. also, other emulation like nes and gbc have the same problem(except for N64). i have no idea why it happens. help me please.

        Change the video_driver in RetroArch from gl2 to sdl2 and it should work. See this recent topic for a similar issue.
