      Lol... founded another workaround..... right now my .local/share/application/retropie.desktop :

      [Desktop Entry]
      Type=Application
      Exec=gnome-terminal --full-screen --hide-menubar -- /usr/bin/retropie.sh
      Hidden=false
      NoDisplay=false
      X-GNOME-Autostart-enabled=true
      Name[de_DE]=RetroPie
      Name=RetroPie
      Comment[de_DE]=RetroPie
      Comment=retropie
      Icon=/usr/local/share/icons/retropie.svg
      Categories=Game
      

      And this /usr/bin/retropie.sh :

      #!/bin/bash
      
      sudo sysctl -w dev.tty.legacy_tiocsti=1
      
      file=/tmp/file.$PPID
       
      if ! [ -f $file ]; 
      then 
          echo 1 >$file && sleep 1 && rm $file
      else
          sleep 10 && exit 0
      fi
      
      _isRunning() {
          ps -o comm= -C "$1" 2>/dev/null | grep -x "$1" >/dev/null 2>&1
      }
         
      if ! _isRunning emulationstatio; then
          emulationstation
          #sudo sysctl -w dev.tty.legacy_tiocsti=1
          #gnome-terminal --full-screen --hide-menubar -- emulationstation
          #sudo sysctl -w dev.tty.legacy_tiocsti=0
          #sudo gedit
      
      fi
      
      sudo sysctl -w dev.tty.legacy_tiocsti=0
      
      exit 0
      

      This apparently it's a good workaround.
      basically run the retropie.sh directly in a windows terminal, the tiocsti it's setted correctly to 1. And after that emulationstation it's launched.
      Since it is launched in a terminal window runcommand is now properly accessible also from my arcade stick..
      So when i choose to exit from emulationstation tiocsti it's setted again to 0 as default and terminal windows it's closed himself.

      I thinks it's a good solution.

      Thanks in advance for support and and for future fixes that will give back the possibility to use the retropie setup script directly from emulationstation.

      -- EDIT --

      Little TWEAK Operation on retropie.sh... now it's :

      #!/bin/bash
      
      file=/tmp/file.$PPID
       
      if ! [ -f $file ]; 
      then 
          echo 1 >$file && sleep 1 && rm $file
      else
          sleep 10 && exit 0
      fi
      
      _isRunning() {
          ps -o comm= -C "$1" 2>/dev/null | grep -x "$1" >/dev/null 2>&1
      }
         
      if ! _isRunning emulationstatio; then
          sudo sysctl -w dev.tty.legacy_tiocsti=1
          emulationstation
          sudo sysctl -w dev.tty.legacy_tiocsti=0
          #gnome-terminal --full-screen --hide-menubar -- emulationstation
          #sudo gedit
      else
          wmctrl -a emulationstation
      fi
      
      exit 0
      

      I have to install wmctrl to set focus to emulationstation if it's already runned.

      All this it's to prevent a double istance if you made a erroneous double on retropie icon on left dock :)

        The latest RetroPie-Setup version updares joy2key to a new version that's no longer dependant on dev.tty.legacy_tiocsti being modified from the default. You can give it a try by updating RetroPiet-Setup, joy2key will be automatically updated in the process.

          Yes I have seen the recent and latest commits.
          Now I do all the updates... I edit everything and remove the "sysctl" entries from my retropie.sh and update you.

          Should this also fix the 'retropie setup script' thing that crashes when launched from emulationstation?

            c214e1da-2b6b-4332-a8d1-66a4bd4069bd-immagine.png

            Open the detail it's appear this:
            1c36faef-0c7c-4a8f-a3d3-d2edc686dde2-immagine.png

            If you thinks it's usefull i can also try to run joy2key from terminal........ i try to edit this same post in a minute.

              In a terminal it's happen this:
              54ba29b6-4fac-4e5c-88fe-be313eaea2da-immagine.png

              Try to lauch 'Retropie setup script' and other tools from emulationstation all goes in crash after you press a key or touch somethings on my arcade stick.

              Look at here... for works good from terminal apparently i need to launch joy2key on sudo right now:

                The RetroPie setup (or the other dialog based configuration tools) is using sudo to launch, but not runcommand. Your user needs to be part of the input group, which apparently is not done by default on Ubuntu ?

                I'll modify the installation routine to make sure the user is part of the input group, so the 1st error (for runcommand ) does not happen anymore.
                EDIT: ok, update RetroPie-Setup and then re-login/reboot, the next run of runcommand (starting a game) should not give you an error.

                          @DjDiabolik You can run the id command and it should print the list of groups. However, it seems it's not enough on Ubuntu to enable write-access. I'll take a look again to see what options are available.
                          Thanks for testing.

                            Run the following command:

                            echo 'KERNEL=="uinput", GROUP="input", MODE=0660' | sudo tee /etc/udev/rules.d/80-uinput.rules
                            

                            and then reboot, afterwards see if the thee permission error still shows up when running as user joy2key_sdl or if runcommand menu works.

                              Before to run the seconds command i have tryed to look on /etc/udev/rules.d

                              and currently there's no file whit this name:

                              diabolik@NUC-Ubuntu:/etc/udev/rules.d$ ls
                              70-snap.canonical-livepatch.rules  70-snap.snapd-desktop-integration.rules  70-snap.snap-store.rules   99-input.rules

                              The echo commands paste this text and create this file.... it's correct ?

                                      The latest update should fix the permissions error. If you still have an error with permissions, check if the /dev/uinput file is writable by the input group by running ls -l /dev/uinput. It should output something like:

                                      
                                      pi@retropie$ ls -l /dev/uinput
                                      crw-rw---- 1 root input 10, 223 Oct 16 16:18 /dev/uinput
                                      

                                      Also, please don't re-post the same picture/screenshot, it's enough to mention the actual error in your post.

                                        it's not the same screenshot.... that's same exact issue in a totally different hardware. it was also to verify that the exact same problem was present in a different system than the one I use daily at my home.

                                        So... right now i have installed the recent commit on my pc:
                                        ff547dc4-6ea5-4b6d-9a4f-485472c29624-immagine.png

                                        It's need to reboot my PC to apply current the new changes?

                                        Simply because the write permission it's different right now:

                                        diabolik@NUC-Ubuntu:~$ ls -l /dev/uinput
                                        crw------- 1 root root 10, 223 ott 17 12:00 /dev/uinput
                                        diabolik@NUC-Ubuntu:~$
                                        

                                        if that doesn't work how do I fix the permissions on that file?

                                        Now in that folder i have this file:

                                        diabolik@NUC-Ubuntu:/etc/udev/rules.d$ ls
                                        70-snap.canonical-livepatch.rules  70-snap.snapd-desktop-integration.rules  70-snap.snap-store.rules   80-rpi-uinput.rules  99-input.rules
                                        70-snap.firefox.rules              70-snap.snapd.rules                      70-snap.thunderbird.rules  80-uinput.rules
                                        diabolik@NUC-Ubuntu:/etc/udev/rules.d$
                                        

                                        80-uinput.rules it's the file we have created yesterday using echo command.
                                        80-rpi-uinput.rules it's problably created right now from recent commit.

                                        The files are essentially identical in content:

                                        diabolik@NUC-Ubuntu:/etc/udev/rules.d$ cat 80-rpi-uinput.rules
                                        KERNEL=="uinput", MODE="0660", GROUP="input"
                                        diabolik@NUC-Ubuntu:/etc/udev/rules.d$ cat 80-uinput.rules
                                        KERNEL=="uinput", GROUP="input", MODE=0660
                                        diabolik@NUC-Ubuntu:/etc/udev/rules.d$
                                        

                                        if i can remove one of the two let me know and possibly i can do it simply with the rm command?

                                          For Ubuntu, it might be needed since uinput is not a module, but a kernel built-in and a reboot may be required for the udev rule to applied.

                                          if i can remove one of the two let me know and possibly i can do it simply with the rm command?

                                          You can remove the 80-uinput.rules file, it's identical to 80-rpi-uinput.rules, which is created by RetroPie-Setup.

                                            @mitu said in Retropie setup menu/Runcommand crashing in ES on Ubuntu:

                                            It's need to reboot my PC to apply current the new changes?

                                            For Ubuntu, it might be needed since uinput is not a module, but a kernel built-in and a reboot may be required for the udev rule to applied.

                                            if i can remove one of the two let me know and possibly i can do it simply with the rm command?

                                            You can remove the 80-uinput.rules file, it's identical to 80-rpi-uinput.rules, which is created by RetroPie-Setup.

                                            ok... now i am watching a movie and i am using pc with kodi...
                                            as soon as I'm done I think I can delete that file with:
                                            sudo rm /etc/udev/rules.d/80-uinput.rules

                                            if I remember it's the file we created yesterday with the command 'echo' exactly?

                                            then I try to restart ubuntu and I rewrite the result of the ls command for uinput in /dev.

                                            thanks in advance for support them.
