      I'm trying to use RemotePi (http://remotepi.io) as remote keyboard with atari800. I can enter config menu (F1) and reset (f5), but when I try to start game (f4) nothing happen. Do you have any idea what can be wrong? or maybe you know any other (simple) solution to use remote keyboard/mouse (from mac or iPhone).

      TIA.

        Before you get too far into troubleshooting this problem, you should see if the event codes for those two keys are even registering. Run evtest /dev/input/eventX, with "X" being the proper event number for the remote keyboard. Press the F4 key and see if you get a response. If not, I would guess the problem lies in the phone software somewhere. If you do get feedback, the keyboard might not be set to the proper localization. In either case, I would check the phone software's settings to see what kind of keyboard it's emulating and set RetroPie's keyboard settings accordingly, if you haven't already done so, to see if it helps the situation.

          Any luck with this? I would really love to use my iPhone as a wireless keyboard/mouse.

          How do I install it on top of retropi?

          Thanks
