[Solved] Ubuntu 20.04 Retropie manager
-
Hi,
I'm running Retropie on a old laptop that runs ubuntu 20.04.
Every first time i tryed to run a game i had to enter my password. I searched on this forum and found a way to remote the password completely.But after that i could not SSH/FTP remote to the server anymore, so i was thinking about installing Retropie manager but i get some errors

@ericosman said in [CentOS 20.04 Retropie manager]
I assume you mean Ubuntu 20.04 ?
Every first time i tryed to run a game i had to enter my password. I searched on this forum and found a way to remote the password completely.
I don't think that's right - how did you install RetroPie ? Did you follow all the necessary steps ?
But after that i could not SSH/FTP remote to the server anymore, so i was thinking about installing Retropie manager but i get some errors
That's not right either - what exactly did you change ?
For the RetroPie web manager, looks like it might not be compatible with newer distributions, so it might need some adjusting, but the author has long deleted the original project's repository and RetroPie just keeps an old mirror of it.

Sorry, yes (my head was in 2 places) I'm running Ubuntu 20.04.
What i did to install:
install Ubuntu.
After that:sudo apt update && sudo apt upgradeand after that:
sudo apt install -y git dialog unzip xmlstarletThen
git clone --depth=1 https://github.com/RetroPie/RetroPie-Setup.gitAnd
cd RetroPie-SetupAnd
sudo ./retropie_setup.shI did a basic install.
I have [Ubuntu] settings --> Users --> Automatic Login [enabled]
How did i remove the password:
sudo visudoAnd added :
Eric ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD:ALLEric is my username
And i did this:
sudo passwd -d `whoami`Because i had some issues i put a password on my user again, but now the first time i want to start a game i have to enter my password.
-
Fixed it. System crashed, so installed ubuntu again with user pi password raspberry.
Now i dont have this problem anymore.Maybe it’s a coincidence but otherwise it may be smart to put it in the manual.
