Retropie 4.x on Odroid C2
-
Apart reicast, I compiled everything I needed but I will continue to work on it for personal pleasure.
If I can help ...Thanks for your support.

@roleo Thanks.
Are you using the 16.04 aarch64 Ubuntu ? I was wondering as you are targetting aarch32 right ? Are you using an aarch32 targetted gcc ?
I was planning on targetting aarch64.
[edit] actually maybe I just misread - you will likely want to remove the "neon" platform flag though though if you have it as that's all aarch32 neon stuff which I don't think will work on aarch64 (without changes).

I had forgotten. At a later time, I removed neon flag because the gcc doesn't support it.
function platform_odroid-c2() { __default_cflags="-O3 -march=armv8-a+crc -mtune=cortex-a53 -funsafe-math-opt __default_asflags="" __default_makeflags="-j2" # __platform_flags="arm armv8 neon mali" __platform_flags="arm armv8 mali" __qemu_cpu=cortex-a9 __has_binaries=0 }As far as I know neon is mandatory for arm64, so no command line flag is needed.

I've an odroidc2 board too, if there's an image to test.

Hi BuzZ.
When I scroll up/down the game list (for example in MAME menu) I can see a strange screen flickerig due to the chars printed on the back (on the terminal I think).
Is this a known problem? Is there a solution?
This doesn't happen in raspberry image. -
@roleo to do with the sdl2 driver I guess. Will look into it.
-
that is great! actually, had I known you needed one to try to get RetroPie support, I would have put some money towards getting you one.
I have an ODroid C2, and would LOVE to see RetroPie using that hardware. thank you Buzz and Hardkernel.
-
if we get RetroPie working on the C2, I see myself buying more C2s those things are fast!
-
@detron it will never be supported to the level of the rpi, but it will be source installable. I have a branch, doing some more fixing and I will do PR for testing..
WIP is here - https://github.com/joolswills/RetroPie-Setup/tree/odroid_c2

I know it will not be as well supported as the Raspberry Pi, and I would not expect anything else, I would be happy with any support. thank you very much for your effort (and others involved)

Thank You.
I'm downloading it.--- EDIT ---
I started with a new installation.
retroarch doesn't finish the build process, I have an error patching glsym_es2.h:
retroarch patch 03_glsym_types.diff failed to applyemulationstation ok
lr-beetle-ngp ok

The source code of retroarch has changed and the patch is no longer needed.

Update.
lr-bluemsx ok
lr-mame2003 ok
lr-nestopia ok
lr-stella okThe autostart script doesn't work.
The system waits for the login. After a successfull login es starts automatically. -
I almost find it funny that just last night I decided to see if I could get retropie running on my c2 and then I find this after I had already run the retropie script. Looks like your changes were already merged in though (probably why everything build successfully). FYI I had to run "sudo MAKEFLAGS="-j1" ./retropie_setup.sh" to build emulation station though.
I'm working with the minimal install though so it just fails with an error about mali not working or something (not in front of it ATM so I can't see post the actual message) . I know it's because I need to install lightdm though so I guess that's next.
Thanks for your work on this!

I meant when I try to start emulationstation (that wasn't clear)

During the build, the script has also built and installed libsdl mali-2.04?
Which libsdl2 packages are installed? You should have:odroid@odroid64:~$ dpkg --list | grep sdl2 ii libsdl2-2.0-0:arm64 2.0.4+4mali arm64 Simple DirectMedia Layer hi libsdl2-dev:arm64 2.0.4+4mali arm64 Simple DirectMedia Layer development filesfrom this source:
https://github.com/RetroPie/SDL-mirror/tree/mali-2.0.4
and not the original ones of ubuntu.Hey roleo I'm having the same issue as the above poster and when I run the DPKG command as you have I get the same results as you do. I'm a Linux Noob so I'm not sure what else to do, but I did click on that link and downloaded a zip file called SDL-mirror-mali-2.0.4
Any help from there would be appreciated

@Bahn-Yuki
You do not need to download and build manually libsdl.
The script does it for you when you build retroarch and/or emulationstation.
But if you have the 2.0.4+4mali version like me, it's ok. -
I wonder what the issue is then. Out of curiousity, what resolution are you using? I'm using the 2160p:420 mode. It works fine in MATE, but could that be a problem for Emulationstation or KODI? KODI won't run either.
-
@Bahn-Yuki
What is the exact message error?
I'm using 1080p60 and I didn't try Kodi. -
@roleo
lvl0: Error creating SDL window!
mali-fbdev: Can't create EGL window surface
lvl0: Renderer failed to initialize!
