      Hello,
      I'm encountering an error when starting EmulationStation; it just scrolls down the screen endlessly.

      I'm using a Raspberry Pi Zero 2 W with a 128GB SSD card running Raspberry Pi OS Lite.

      I've tried setting gpu_mem to both 128 and 256, and I also commented out dtoverlay=vc4-kms-v3d.

      Could the lack of a windowing system in OS Lite be causing this issue?

        Please post the info requested in https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/3/read-this-first to your topic. Are you using RetroPie and/or the RetroPie's EmulationStation fork ?

        I've tried setting gpu_mem to both 128 and 256, and I also commented out dtoverlay=vc4-kms-v3d.

        The RetroPIe image doesn't have that overlay included - are you using the RetroPie image or not ?

        Could the lack of a windowing system in OS Lite be causing this issue?

        No, but please provide some context, as asked, on your setup.
