Setting 4.0.2 again and Kodi won´t launch

Rascas

Kodi 17 should work on older versions of RetroPie, but you should update the RetroPie-Setup scripts and update/install Kodi again. You don't need to update the emulators.
And please provide more info and the logs, like explained here:

@josete2k I am not aware of any n64 performance changes - probably the default gpu plugin changed for one that was more compatible, but nothing has got slower that I am aware of.

There was a bug in lr-pcsx-rearmed when the 4.1 image was generated but it's easily fixed by updated that emulator.

@Rascas thanks, I tried to update RetroPie script and all cores from sources, reinstalled kodi and it doesn't launch :(

I'm not sure if I can make a log from it... I'll take a look next time I power on my raspberry.

@BuZz I had some issues in lr-pcsx even in 4.0.3 (with EA intros) and some slowdown (in R-Type Delta) those issues aren't in the emulator that comes with the premade img of 4.0.2.

N64 is more compatible in 4.0.2 with glide-HiRes (Mario KART) and in 4.1 I have some glitches in many games (Mario 64).

I'll try with 4.1.5 and updating the emulators.

@josete2k the 4.0.3 issue may have been something else - or you may have updated to the buggy version.

Re n64 The glitches are already fixed.

josete2k

@BuZz thanks again... I've tested with a 4.1 image.

I've updated script, cores, mupenplus64, lr-pcsx and kodi.

Reboot...

And EmulationStation don't boot

segmentation fault

:(

@josete2k Please provide more information about your system. Also how you updated. and the contents of /opt/retropie/configs/all/emulationstation/es_log.txt

eg the information here - https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/3/read-this-first

You should just do "Update all packages" btw - rather than updating individually - it's possible you missed something doing it manually etc.

@BuZz I'm flashing the SD and I'll try again in a few minutes.

If doesn't work, can I read the es_log.txt from ssh, I assume.

Thanks.

BuZz

@josete2k or from sftp / windows networking.

josete2k

Ok, as ES doesn't launch I was thinking that sftp maybe doesn't work.

Perfect.
Tanks again.

josete2k

Ok, new tests.

4.1.15 is still buggy (slowdown in R-Type DELTA and fail to launch FIFA98 SPANISH is I don't skip the EA intro). Kodi updated to 17 Krypton without any issue.

So, I wanted to test 4.0.2 again...

I got an SD 4.0.2 image with Kodi 16 100% working, updated ONLY Kodi to 17 Krypton and... same result: no launching. So there is something wrong with the Krypton+4.0.2 combination.

Maybe I'd let it in 4.0.2 and Kodi 16.

@josete2k rtype delta has no slowdowns here - I play that game a fair amount. How did you update ?

josete2k

Update RetroPie Script
Reboot
Update all installed packages

BuZz

@josete2k BTW it's enough to just do update all installed packages. Maybe you have some wrong settings - but I cannot advise without more information - you should start a new topic for specific emulator issues providing details about setup / emulator in use and so on .

That is the way to go forward - I cannot help on an older unsupported version.
