    @BuZz I can give it a shot later on. Would it be possible to merge the fixes on the ES dev branch also to stable ? Particularly this, which fixes the ScreenScraper scraping.
    Did you decide to include RetroArch 1.7.7 also ? I know they fixed some of the issues and moved the 1.7.7 tag after those fixes.

      @quicksilver both. General functionality test would be useful also.

        @mitu re: Emulation Station - will do.

        Didn't know they retagged the same version. Confusing. I think due to time we will have to skip it.

            @BuZz said in Latest update and PS3 sixaxis controller:

            I have created an image with the newer buster kernel packages which should resolve the issue (I have tested it briefly and the buster kernel/firmware seems compatible).

            https://drive.google.com/open?id=1I8ivhFaVJr1_7tBJzAwMA4z-ZrltXp05 (rpi2/3 only)

            If this does work for you, I will be pretty much ready to do the RetroPie 4.5 release (and after we will look at moving to buster and adding rpi4 support).

            I would be interested in anyone else who can test this to make sure no functionality is broken.

            Regarding this Kernel issue and the mention of Buster, if I upgrade Stretch to Buster, does Retropie works normally and will this issue be addressed? Rephrasing, is Retropie compatible with Raspbian Buster?

              Not yet. However, there will be a fix for this soon, when 4.5 will be released - see this announcement.

                    You don't need to use the script I posted. Just use the "Update" option from the latest version of RetroPie-Setup (4.4.16 or later) and it'll automatically upgrade the firmware to the version from Raspbian buster that includes the bluetooth fix.

                            @TYHO We are using some packages from Buster for the 4.5 Stretch image to work around the sony bluetooth issue as Stretch hasn't received an official kernel update.

                                @BuZz The kernel is updated even if I have a manual installation? I mean, I didn't use a prebuilt image. I just installed Raspbian Stretch and installed Retropie on top of it.

                                  @ivooc it will if you use the update function from RetroPie and say yes to update system packages.

                                    @BuZz Currently I have placed blocks using the downgrade script.

                                    So if I do the full update through the retropie_setup script (meaning saying YES when it asks to update the underlying OS kernel packages etc.) I will be fine?

                                    Or do I need to run the downgrade script again to unblock the updates and then update through retropie_setup?

                                      I believe you can call the downgrade script in three ways.
                                      sudo ./downgrade_firmware.sh downgrade
                                      sudo ./downgrade_firmware.sh block
                                      sudo ./downgrade_firmware.sh unblock

                                      both downgrading and blocking will block updates, if you update from retropie and answer yes then the kernel updates will be blocked.

                                      unless you are referring to a different downgrade script.

                                        @Efriim it wont stop the kernel update afaik as we install it via dpkg not apt.

                                          @Efriim yes I was talking about the script you mention.

                                          @BuZz thanks, I will keep the block in place then and use retropie_setup to update then.

                                          I frequently do
                                          sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade
                                          cause I use my raspberry pi for other stuff too and I like being updated.
