@mitu Wasn't sure if removing the override would break anything. Removed it today and its working fine. Thanks.

@retropieuser555 said in Hide Cursor functions using startx or XINIT?:

@superfromnd So I tried this but the rom doesn't load, it boots to the emulator itself and I have to select the rom from the emulator GUI. It loaded the rom before without -- - nocursor. I also tried putting the %ROM% at the end but that didn't work either.

Any ideas?

Maybe not the answer you where after, but try installing unclutter and setting a timeout of 1s.

I tried to reproduce the issue, but I don't seem to be able to. Using the same emulator (lr-mgba), with or without the BIOS, the save file is loaded correctly.
Can you check if you have enough space available on your USB ? The save file (in-game saves) is stored next to the ROM, it's named <ROMNAME>.srm, if you don't see one, then the emulator cannot save the file.

How are you mounting the USB stick to the system ? Did you follow the docs or did you do it manually ?

@mitu I used the handy update all packages command which defaults to binary when available. So, I'm assuming that it updated lr-mGBA from binary as usual.

The current lr-mGBA version I am using is listed as 0.6.1
