Waveshare 2.8A and retropie
-
Hello.I bought a raspberry pi display and builded a mini apple lisa.It worked great using the raspbian with the drivers installed.I wanted to install retropie on it,but i cannot find any drivers for it,I have found some but I need the files that it came on a cd.Does anybody can help me please?

@Ferferite RetroPie is based on Raspbian Lite, so whatever drivers you've installed and used on Raspbian should work also in RetroPie.
If you already have a set up system (Raspbian), you can manually install RetroPie on top, instead of using the RetroPie version - see the manual installation page. -
I tried to do that and it worked,but after a reboot,it didn't work agian(it woldn't boot to retropie,the screen was white)

@Ferferite Maybe the screen's resolution is not enoug for Emulationstation. What's the resolution for the Waveshare ? You can find an Emulationstation log file in
~/.emulationstation/es_log.txt, maybe there's an error logged there. -
I have found the drivers for it and installed them.Now it only shows the command line when it boots up.(the svreen was working with retropie,used it before)

@Ferferite Is auto-login enabled ?
