Hello. I would like to ask if someone has installed RetroPie on a 2GB board? Thanks.

Splashscreens are working again with RPi 5 and Bookworm. Many thanks to Devs!

Master Dev

@sugarfree splashscreens??

sugarfree

@Master-Dev Splash screens are images that appear when the system is booting.

How well does the 3D0 run on this?
Seems like it should be a simple thing.

It is. Most games run great with lr-opera.

Retrodade

@sugarfree Thats great! good news! also are there bezels?

mitu

@Retrodade RetroPie doesn't include Bezels, but you can install them yourself from the Bezel Project - https://github.com/thebezelproject/BezelProject.

As I said, RetroPie doesn't include any bezels, so there isn't any 'official' way (Pi5 or not) to install them beside the installer provided by the BezelProject.

@sugarfree I installed and configured SplashScreen on Pi 5, and Emulation Station always crashes when I reboot the system.
RetroPie and system versions are up to date

I suggest opening a separate topic about this issue with additional information as requested: https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/3/read-this-first

Any news or update on the PreMade images for the Pi 5?
I remember when the PI 4 was released and the premade was out in 6months..

Sort of curious what's taking so long, unless it really is much more complicated.

The Pi 4 was released on June 24th, 2019.

The first Retropie build wasn't until April 28th, 2020 so nearly a year, and that was also a beta build.

The first official Pi 4 build, meaning non-beta wasn't until November 2nd 2020 so that was a full 17 months after the Pi 4 build was released.

Thank you for the correction!
Didn't seem that long, but I think I know why.
I remember the 4s in the ram size I wanted being sold out for a while, and when I finally got one the build was released like a few months later.

Either way, thanks!
Still hope to see a 5build sometime. soon.

What, if any, implications would this have on RetroPie and it's use of X? Would we look to switch away from X? Or carry on with that indefinitely?
