      @mitu Thanks - I thought it would be something easy, and it was that. All works now!

      (Just in case anyone else sees this - the .desktop file is in /usr/local/share/applications )

      I am using cardcrazy as theme but even if i change to the basic theme it is stuttering..not directly but if i am scrolling around through the systems a bit. I think the onboard gfx has no seperat ram.. its shared.. ok, will try to switch off the videos and check the vsync.. but as on raspi i cant find a config.txt file for trying some tweaking. On Pi i had once after an update probs in the menu and was able to fix it with adding the line gpu_mem=256.
      Could it be that it has something to do with the 64bit Version of Mint? I think retropie in gerneral is a 32bit application.. ?

      @10vorne I dont have any experience running it on a netbook. Sorry! Maybe someone else more knowledgeable in that area might be able to help.

      It's part of vice-x64, but Emulation Station doesn't factor into it. It's set from within the vice-x64 settings menu.

      I edited
      scriptmodules/helpers.sh: local own_sdl2=1
      to
      scriptmodules/helpers.sh: local own_sdl2=0

      This just uses the default sdl2 installed on the system. Seems to work ok

      @lurkout performance / familiarity. We don't use retroarch as a frontend, so there is less need for xmb. I'm quite happy leaving it with the boring old gui for now anyway - but users can switch if they want.

      @herb_fargus

      do you live in tualatin?

      lol unfortunately no, it's only my first PC PIII(Tualatin) name, that i take as nickname.

      Does emulationstation work just from the terminal by typing in emulationstation?

      yes it works, but now i have another problem, my sixaxis dont mapping correct, can it be a problem of internal bluetooth in my laptop, i need to use external dongle ? Whith my usb controler it work fine.
