@posti85 said in Installation fails (due gcc-6 was unable to locate):

Does Raspbian buster (or other debian based dist) may have the same problem?

No, Raspbian includes gcc-6 in Buster (though apparently Debian doesn't). You can also use lr-mgba as GBA emulator.

Works like a charm

Thanks.

@warpath0007 Please do not post a support request without first reading and following the advice in https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/3/read-this-first

@BelligerentBash said in running retropie_setup.sh basic install without gui:

The output I get from running with no parameters (sudo ./retropie_packages.sh) does not list the 'sub-parameters' for the setup parameter, or even the main setup parameter.

The first parameter is the module. The second is the function to call. It does list all the functions.

Dear @mitu, your suggestion worked like a charm, many tnx, I'll give a try to Ultimarc-linux as well.

I bought it from a local retailer 1 or 2 years ago.

Thanks !
I try for the last 4 days :(
Do you know if its possible to try to do the clone of the ffmpeg first ? its seems that's the module with the problem
Br

@Darksavior Ty for this information! I am a visual learner so I usually default to youtube for help, sorry :/

It's not end-user friendly but it's possible..

You would have to compile it for pi (if available), add it to the emulators folder and edit it into the config files and es_system.cfg

That's how I have Mame4Rage2 and Supermodel running on my x86 build.

Actually I just saw the performance test...I think I will get a Pi4 and modify the Nespicase lol...I want to play ps1 dreamcast and some n64 Mame etc, the Pi1 B+ doesn't seems to be strong enough for all this.

@privatelupo If you're targeting a PC, disabling Vulkan might not be desired. The build options for RetroArch are set in build function of the install script, so it can be patched easily.

Awesome! Thanks! I wrongly assumed that because it wasn't officially supported yet the manual process wouldn't apply for some reason.

In case anyone comes across this and can't start Pico-8 on retropie, you have to make sure you allow permissions to run.

Install per the guide above, then run this from the command line or via SSH:

sudo chmod 777 ~/pico-8/pico8

This will allow the pico8 application to run and it won't just hard stop and drop you back to ES.

Also if you boot into splore instead of roms directly, you don't need to use a keyboard to run the games or exit back to ES. Works on GPi (but gets a bit hot, haha)

@quicksilver

That's good advice. I have two cards that I alternate between when it's time to upgrade. It's intended as insurance to protect my time, but I've never actually had to go back to a previous card. As far as the difficulty of upgrading is concerned, I run 33 systems in RetroPie that are highly customized, as well as dual boot into an equally customized OSMC and it only ever takes about 30-40 minutes to upgrade and restore my settings back to where they were. Granted, even that amount of time can be hard to come by during a hectic week, but that's why God invented Sundays... well, you know, that and all the praising, but I doubt he's ever smited anyone for catching up on a little computer maintenance all the same.

@mitu Thank you so much! ApplePiBaker worked so much better!!!

@mitu thanks dude, that was it.
i had removed everything with kodi- before it in
synaptic package manager and then reinstalled kodi
from binary in retropie and restarted retropie/es
and now kodi shows up and runs within ports!
thanks you

@Darksavior Nevermind, I found it. That worked perfectly. I'm getting the quarter of a screen problem too, but that can be fixed. Gotta admit, I think I probably enjoy setting up the RetroPie more than playing the games.

@mitu Oh that makes sense then. Thanks a lot for clearing that up.

And you're probably right that I should wait for the Pi4 to be officially supported before I begin again :)

@BennyProfane
I saw some people on internet saying that 64Gb SD Cards need some special treatment, in order to be compatible with Raspberry Pi, I don't Know, but if you say it works, I'm not worry :P

Thank you for your help! :)

It is fixed now. Please see https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/23328/powerblock-driver-quick-installation-fails/5.
