      @pfoff The error is a very generic one and it's unlikely it's something related to SDL, looks like there's a problem with your system. Check dmesg for any related errors - especially hardware ones.
      With only 2Gb or RAM, you'd better off using the 32bit version of the OS, you won't gain very much with a 64 bit system. Also, on PC all packages are built from source, so there's no need to re-compile manually any package.

      hi, I hope you are not referring to me. I just wanted to inform admin about this site if they want to take some legal action or something.
      If it's fine, I can delete the post and let it go but I don't like that someone gain money with retropie violating all terms.

      They may of gotten away with it longer if they weren't doing it in Bandai-namco's backyard.

      Operating out of that abandoned amusement park probably raised a lot of suspicion too.

      I can confirm it was the SD card. I bought a new one and made all updates. After that everything runs as intended. :)

      PS: I buyed a more expensive SanDisk Extreme. Much faster than the SanDisk Ultra I had before!

      Aside from the fact that they're not supposed to sell a RetroPie image, their showcasing of RetroPie is the most troubling part; someone who doesn't know what's going on can look at that and assume that the RetroPie team is behind it all.

      I've recently heard of a script that downloads roms from an exclusive web server once the Pi is booted and is connected to the internet, so they're technically not selling roms, but that still can't be legal.

      Also, the sad part is there's not much that anyone can do about these sales; if you report them and they get shut down, they just come back under a different name. The only thing that I can suggest is to encourage people to build their own setups instead of buying them. People who aren't tech-savvy tend to be intimidated at the thought of putting one together, and they need to know that this is a platform for beginners to learn computing; it's not some impossible piece of tech that they can't wrap their heads around.

      I had this problem too...
      for me it was the marquee file that was bad (Muppet Adventure - Chaos at the Carnival (USA).png)...

      Not the entry in the gamelist.

      Here is the replacement I made...

      Sorry for the late reply.
      Thanks for your replies Herb and Petro.
      As I am new to this I didn't want to do something I shouldn't be doing but after a lot of reading on the web I have made my mind up on the moral side of things with the roms.

      I have figured out what files I need but haven't had chance to try them as yet.

      I have a Wii u pro controller and wanted to know if the joystick part of the controller doesn't work to control the games is it possible the make them control the movement of the game.

      I have been spending most of my time fixing the sound and tv resolution in retropi and all is well with the pi now :). Have to admit even though I struggled I have enjoyed learning something new :). I'm going to buy the book on pi projects next :)

      @BuZz

      Excellent - Thanks for your help.

      Makes perfect sense.

      I'll re-install ES on the Pi2, then Re-install Kids Mode on the Pi2 and all should be good to go.

      Thanks again.
