      Hi,
      So I was working on setting up the mobile gamepad (https://github.com/RetroPie/RetroPie-Setup/wiki/Mobile-Gamepad) and started a "sudo apt-get upgrade." As per my luck, I dropped something and it managed to hit Ctrl+Z. Everything seemed fine, but after a reboot, no controllers (keyboard, wired, or Bluetooth, not even the Wiimote I just set up) would work. I'm not sure how to fix this and I cant find anyone in this situation without being able to use f4. Can anyone help?

        @noamDA Are you able to SSH into the Pi? You could also try booting in safe mode .

          @AlexMurphy Sadly, I completely forgot to set up SSH.
          I'd try safe mode, but my keyboard input is not working.

            @noamDA Are you far into your set-up? If you haven't expended too much time I would advise you just to re-flash the card rather than trying to debug this issue.

              @AlexMurphy I had finished with rom uploading, and resorting to find what I want is way too much work if there is another way...
              If noone knows, I'll have to start from scratch.

              Also, setting up the wiimote stuff is kind of tedious.
