      if I have any USB dongles attached, I get the black screen

      Thanks a lot for figuring this out! Hopefully this will help others who maybe stuck with same problem.

      I'm curious what might be causing this though. I plugged into x200 laptop that I setup with 20.04.1 USB hardware I had lying around, but couldn't reproduce this. :(

      @elliot123 @Nobodyfamous Do you mind sharing what laptop/hw you're using (or at least if it has non-Intel graphics chipset)?

      I am personally on Ubuntu 20.10 with KMS/DRM setup (e.g. no X) and that has been working well for me on NUC8i5BEK (and x200 and pixelbook laptops; but then again, so did 20.04.1 mostly).

      If you're on intel GPU/graphics chipset, maybe you can try Ubuntu 20.10 and my KMS/DRM setup during xmas - I'd be curious to hear if it works any better for you (discussion, Ubuntu 20.10 server iso, forked 20.10/kms compatible install script, optional_scripts/post_install/00_kmsdrm.sh to setup for kms/drm)? Word of warning though - KMS/DRM script [probably] only works for Intel graphics chipsets ; if you have nVidia or AMD, probably not worth the time to test how it breaks the KMS/DRM modifications. :)

        @etheling The laptop I am using is an HP Compaq 8510p

        I just did a fresh install of Ubuntu server 20.04.1 and rather than using MrB script, I just did the first 7 steps of this thread and installed RetroPie and it is working pretty good. At least it boots with USB dngles plugged in. I am just running my test games (Hot Wheels Turbo racing, and Gran Turismo, Tony Hawk pro skater)

        UPDATE: game play is alright. I need to add some emulators. Out of the box, recalbox works so well with both N64 and PSX.

        I still can not get Retropie-Extras to show up in the package lists. I just sshed in and installed google-chrome, and then added chrome launcher to kodi. It works okay. I had to remove -nocursor from the .bash_profile so I could see the mouse in chrome.

          One last thing I am trying to do is have Kodi auto start on boot. The autostart option in RetrePie-Setup only lists enable/disable for ES autostart.

          I edited .config/openbox/autostart and put gnome-terminal --full-screen --hide-menubar -- kodi-standalone #auto\nemulationstation #auto which I gleaned from https://github.com/RetroPie/RetroPie-Setup/blob/master/scriptmodules/supplementary/autostart.sh

          Kodi will start, but when I exit, ES is not running or started.

          Any ideas?

          UPDATE: with help I figured it out

          /home/pi/.config/openbox/autostart

          gnome-terminal --full-screen --hide-menubar -- bash /home/pi/autostart.sh
          

          and
          /home/pi/autostart.sh (chmod +x)

          #!/usr/bin/env bash
          kodi-standalone
          sleep 2
          emulationstation

            @johnodon Hey there, before anything, thanks for sharing this awesome stuff :D. I am going to try it on my server (20.04), i would like to avoid running retropie on startup, considering i have plenty other stuff on the server. Is there an easy way to avoid it by editing the provided bootstrap.sh ? thanks in advance !

                @etheling said in Retropie Installation on Ubuntu Server x64 18.04.1:

                And lastly, while not completely unexpected, still somewhat disappointing: it looks like nVidia or Radeon based systems don't trivially support this approach. They might still, but... I got KMS/DRM working under Nouveau nVidia driver (used 'nouveau.modeset=1 i915.modeset=0' boot options), but performance was subjectively substandard to running emulators under X with nVidia binary drivers, so unless one is open source purist, I don't know why would you want to do that.

                @etheling Wasn't sure if you saw this or not:
                https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/NVIDIA#DRM_kernel_mode_setting

                I have KMS/DRM working nicely on my Asus CN65 (Intel HD 5500) but would LOVE to get my GTX1650 purring. Does any of the above help to get us closer to Nvidia support?

                TIA!

                  https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/NVIDIA#DRM_kernel_mode_setting

                  I think version 364.16 that they mention in Arch wiki is from around 2016. I tried to get KMS/DRM working on 1080Ti equipped workstation with Nouveau and NVidia proprietary drivers around new years but gave up. With Nouveau the KMS/DRM perf was sub par (e.g. about the same as what I get from Intel Iris 655 that I have in NUC). Proprietary driver wouldn't co-operate at all. I was more curious than determined, so maybe there is some way to get it running. These changes coming to 5.11/5.12 kernels might change something for the better on the Noveau side. I may try again after Ubuntu 21.04 is released later this month as I think it'll ship with 5.11.

                  I got my hands on a new 'toy' couple of weeks back with AMD Ryzen 5 / Vega 11 inside, complete with FreeSync enabled 144Hz gaming display. And I absolutely wanted to try to see how RetroPie/RetroArch runs with FreeSync enabled and generally see how it compares to my NUC.

                  TL;Dr: KMS/DRM doesn't appear to support Variable Refresh Rate (VRR) at all yet (although some work seems to be in progress to make it supported), and in general KMS/DRM perf wasn't as good as expected on Razen/Vega 11 (tried with both open source and AMD proprietary driver). Perf was as expected and VRR/FreeSync worked great under both X and Wayland/Sway. Working combination I have now is Ubuntu 20.04, with latest AMDGPU 20.50 driver and Wayland using Sway compositor.

                  And let me go on record saying that I absolutely love the RetroPie experience with FreeSync enabled. Now modesetting can be completely skipped in runcommand as RetroArch (with vrr_runloop_enable = "true") cores are able to sync monitor to actual refresh rate the content runs on (like NTSC or PAL refresh rates or to more exotic ones like NeoGeo at 59.1856060Hz, StarWars at 40Hz or Mortal Kombat at 54Hz etc.). It is probably placebo effect, but some titles just feel more smooth and responsive with FreeSync running.

                  I'll see if I can package what I did to an install 'recipe' for MisterBs core install script so that if someone else wants to try Linux / FreeSync / VRR /w RetroPie on AMDGPU, they can skip right to the good part. :)

                    @etheling Honestly, I stopped using mini/server as the base OS and now just use 20.04 Desktop and make Openbox the default DE. There is very little tweaking that needs to be done after the fact (i.e. set gnome terminal background to black, hide the scrollbar, etc.) and I can always get back to a true desktop if needed. My HP Prodesk 600 G2 does an excellent job of hiding boot test so no tweaking needed there. On a 240GB SSD that is dedicated to the OS and a 1TB SSD for ROMS/media, I'm not exactly hurting for space and boot times really aren't that much slower. So far it has been an absolute joy.

                    That being said...from what I have seen on my Chromebox, KMS/DRM is the way to go as far as giving a true appliance look/feel.

                      As mentioned few days a go I've been playing around with RetroPie and FreeSync, and I really like how it works / feels.

                      Below is a link to install script to configure Ubuntu 20.04LTS and RetroPie to work with AMD FreeSync when amdgpu and compatible display are present. Script probably looks more complicated than it really was to get everything going, but at the same time, it took me a while to get all the right configs/pieces together - and now they are codified here to hopefully save anyone else who wants to try this from the trouble.

                      URL: https://gist.github.com/etheling/a0978b54c8989002fbd913d179cc1543

                      It overwrites and modifies current Wayland and X. org configurations and generally expects to be ran as part of post install portion of RetroPie Ubuntu setup script by MisterB.

                      If ran independently, results may vary, because current configuration may differ from expected starting point.

                      To produce a working FreeSync VRR configuration on Linux, script needs following (these are likely to change over time as driver situation improves/changes):

                      • Modern AMD GPU and Display that support FreeSync
                      • DisplayPort cable (VRR only supported over DP on Linux currently, but some work appears to be underway to also support VRR over HDMI)
                      • Ubuntu 20.04 LTS (newest Ubuntu that is supported by AMD GPU drivers from amd.com)
                      • AMD GPU proprietary driver 20.50 (open source stock linux driver introduced stutter etc. where smooth motion was expected; I am using e.g. Atari 2600 Seaquest to test this. 20.50 is first version to support Ubuntu 20.04.2)
                      • Sway 1.5.x Wayland compositor (VRR is supported starting v1.5 of Sway, but Ubuntu 20.04 ships with 1.4)
                      • RetroPie emulationstation-dev (because current default version does not work with AMD proprietary driver)
                      • RetroArch 1.7.4 or newer for FreeSync/G-Sync support (vrr_runloop_enable)

                      In addition to above, Mesa will be upgraded to latest stable Mesa from ppa:kisak/kisak-mesa

                      This script has only been tested on 1920x1080@144Hz Viewsonic XG2405 display. It assumes that everything will be ran at 1080p resolution. It will also roll back certain changes made by core install script (remove plymouth theme/splash and switch to i3 as a default X window manager) in order to harmonize setup between Wayland and X. Please note that Wayland/Sway is started with XWayland disabled.

                      Once the script successfully completes, it has created working configurations for Wayland/Sway and X. org/i3, and has modified/replaced [roughly] following configuration files:

                      • /etc/X11/xorg.conf - enable TearFree, DRI3, VRR and set Modeline for VRR mode
                      • /home/<user>/.bash_profile - set environment, start Sway or i3
                      • /home/<user>/.config/i3/config
                      • /home/<user>/.config/sway/config
                      • /home/<user>/.xsession - set freesync propert
                      • /opt/retropie/suplementary/runcommand/runcommand.sh - allow showing launching images under Wayland
                      • /opt/retropie/configs/all/retroarch.cfg - enable G/FreeSync, set display driver to Vulkan
                      • /etc/default/grub - set kernel / GRUB modes

                      Wayland configuration is used as a default as xorg. conf needs a modeline created, which is not very well tested nor does it feel robust.

                      After reboot, the system will at startup launch Sway/Wayland and load emulation station (F4, Win+Enter to get shell). To change to running under X. org/i3 (or KMS/DRM?), see /home/<user>/.bashprofile.

                      alt text

                      NeoGeo at 59.19fps, Mortal kombat at ~56Hz and Star Wars at 80Hz (core runs at 40Hz, but because display can only go down to 48Hz, it is running at double the Hz).

                        @johnodon I couldn't agree more on KMS/DRM. I feel that it's the best way to experience RetroPie. Unfortunately it seems to currently work best on Intel GPUs. E.g. it works on AMD Vega 11 I tried it on, but shader performance is subpar compared to running under X or Wayland. And with NVidia we're not even that close. But hopefully this improves as time goes on.

                        I stopped using mini/server as the base OS and now just use 20.04 Desktop and make Openbox the default DE

                        That makes total sense. I have a PXE boot setup at home through which I can (most of the time ;-) automatically image my dedicated RetroPie NUC, etc. so it fits my setup very well. Main benefit I see is that it provides a sort of stable starting point for these other scripts that tune the Ubuntu based RetroPie setup.

                          I do exactly the same, using a combo of pfsense/unRAID for all of the heavy lifting.

                              @etheling I invested in an HP Elitedesk 800 G2 mini for my arcade cab (will be used for MAME/FBNEO/Atomiswave/Naomi/Daphne only). It has an Intel iGPU so I am giving your KMS/DRM script a go on Server 20.10. I'll report back.

                              ps. Was there a reason why you landed on 20.10? Have you moved onto 21.04 yet?

                                It should install fine but when I had issues in the past it was because I didn't define a swap file.

                                    EDIT: I updated the code below to call cvlc rather than vlcto avoid the command interface being displayed.
                                    EDIT2: Added --gl=any to the switches which helped with some screen tearing.

                                    For anyone interested in adding boot animation to your x86 install...

                                    I stole this idea from this thread/post: https://retropie.org.uk/forum/post/200329

                                    You need to create the ~/Retropie/splashscreensfolder and drop your MP4s in there. This folder is already mapped via Samba but is not created with the x86 RP setup script.

                                    Since I am using @etheling's KMS/DRM scripts, I modified my ~/.bash_profile to look like this:

                                    if [[ -z $DISPLAY ]] && [[ $(tty) = /dev/tty1 ]]; then
                                        cvlc --random --play-and-stop --play-and-exit --fullscreen --video-on-top --no-video-title-show --quiet --gl=any ~/RetroPie/splashscreens &> /dev/null
                                        emulationstation
                                    fi
                                    
                                    

                                    Now on startup, the boot animation is played and ES is launched immediately after.

                                          @etheling or anyone else using KMS/DRM…

                                          Are video snaps working for you? As soon as I select a system, ES crashes. If I comment out the ‘video’ elements in the gamelist.xml, everything works as expected.

                                            UPDATE: This gist (https://gist.github.com/etheling/fce73b919b6dc7fc51b2fe715d9faba2) works but the one linked below does not.

                                            @etheling I'm not sure what has changed in the last month or so but I performed a clean install on my Asus CN62 using your gists (https://gist.github.com/etheling/085c4b015a0d35765de7366f3c40b454) and get a black screen when ES launches. I've tried multiple versions of Ubuntu but let's just baseline on 20.04 mini.

                                            Your scripts had worked previously on the same hardware. Any ideas? Which logs should I be looking at? I can see that ES is indeed running...
