      Discworld (I'm a hardcore Pratchett fan, RIP).

      Same here. I always loved adventures and when i saw the test for Discworld 1 in a videogame magazin, it said that it would be wise to know the books. So I started reading them, and I love all of them. It's so sad that Terry died. But I actually just bought 3 audiobooks from him a few hours ago and I also spend some money on an Logitech MX Ergo and now I can enjoy ScummVM on my Tablet with proper mouse control. yay

        @EctoOne @Sano I have heard so many times about Discworld, but never played it myself. Looks like I should give it a try :)

          @hhromic You should, there are some weird puzzles but it's okay. And I still need to finish Discworld Noir someday.

          PS: I lied, I only bought 2 Discworld audiobooks, the third one was from Douglas Adams or I should say Eoin Colfer who released the last Hitchhiker book. :D

              @hhromic I actually don't know who that is, but yeah I googled Douglas Adams a few weeks ago and saw on wikipedia that Douglas Adams widow allowed to finish the last book in 2009.

                @EctoOne @hhromic If you're somewhat interested in sci-fi, I hope you have read the "long earth" serie, from Pratchett and Baxter. If not, please do, it's excellent IMHO.
                Pratchett humor and humanity combined with Baxter rigorous hard science fiction, that makes a great mix.
                Here is for the off-topic :)

                  @Sano I don't know, I have 5 audiobooks (I switched from reading a long time ago) of the Long Earth series, but I've only listend to the first one yet. I couldn't really get into it.

                    I figured out why I had no mouse. I noticed other Retroarch cores had no mouse either, so I started looking at settings, and retroarch config. I erased all lines pertaining to input, and the mouse worked again. I couldn't narrow it down to exactly what caused the issue. I ended up abandoning my old crowded Retroarch.cfg and using the clean one from the RetroPie. Happy New Year!

                          @DarishZone I have a wired 250 mb line, and the download & build of the lr-scummvm core took a lo-oong time. Did you get any messages / errors?

                            @DarishZone What's the error ? Post the actual error and maybe we can find a solution.

                              I'm sorry but i don't have that, i'm pretty sure install, which is loong indeed, interrupt with some error on terminal then a message on Emulation Station, seems it not compile for some reason. I will eventually try again and takes some photos, thx!

                                  Hi all! I've been traveling and didn't have time to catch-up the forum.
                                  there were some recent commits to the lr-scummvm upstream that changed the Makefile, maybe it broke.
                                  Yes, @DarishZone if you can post the error that would be very useful. Anyway I will also try to compile the core soon and see what is going on. Thanks for reporting!

                                    I just tried installing lr_scummvm on a fresh install and was greeted with the following error:

                                    Could not successfully build lr-scummvm - ScummVM port for libretro
                                    (/home/pi/RetroPie-Setup/tmp/build/lr-scummvm/backends/platform/libretro/build/scummvm_libretro.so not found).

                                    When scrolling a little bit up (I used SSH) I see

                                    collect2: error: Id returned 1 exit status
                                    Makefile:424: recipe for target 'scummvm_libretro.so' failed
                                    make: *** [scummvm_libretro.so] Error 1

                                    and a lot of undefined references above that. The error seems to happen quite at the end, the build process ran for 1h 15 before that...

                                      @jandalf81 There should be a full log file of the installation under ~/RetroPie-Setup/logs - check the most recent one. It would be good if you'd get the file and upload it's contents to pastebin.com to take a look.

                                        @mitu Yeah, sorry. I submitted that post too fast. I'm uploading to pastebin as I type this, will update with a link any minute now

                                        EDIT:
                                        The upload to pastebin failed (it's too large). The whole log (still in the gzipped archive) is here: https://www.dropbox.com/s/zrlw601gzuihsuf/rps_2019-01-11_194137.log.gz?dl=0

                                          @jandalf81 thanks for the log. Indeed the recent commits broke the build for RPI at the final linking stage, hence why it takes a while to compile but fails at the very end. By the looks it seems it needs some flags adjustment in the Makefile.

                                          Unfortunately I won't have time today to fix it, but if you are comfortable using the console, what you can do in the meantime is to force compilation to the last working commit.

                                          1. With an editor, e.g. nano, open the file $HOME/RetroPie-Setup/scriptmodules/libretrocores/lr-scummvm.sh.

                                          2. The first function in the file is sources_lr-scummvm(), in there find the line:

                                            gitPullOrClone "$md_build" https://github.com/libretro/scummvm.git
                                            

                                            and replace it with this:

                                            gitPullOrClone "$md_build" https://github.com/libretro/scummvm.git master 20d71cd7189ae7fdd453a3041f3103bffabea13e
                                            
                                          3. Afterwards save the changes, exit the editor and try to install again.

                                          When I figure out what is going on will update. Thanks!

                                            Will test that fix in the meanwhile! Thanks
