@xtv Just out of curiosity: Did you actually use beetle-psx on a Pi (which one?) and if so, how did it hold up since it's known for being too slow on ARM?

@reborn1840 said in I put retropie on raspbian,but Basic installation error.: @mitu PING google.com (8.7.198.46) 56(84) bytes of data. That's not saying much - do you get a reply back ? Is the connection working ? Can you install a simple package via apt get ?

You'll need to enable SSH on your PI and use an utility like CyberDuck or FileZilla to be able to download the log file to your mac, then unpack the log and upload its contents to pastebin.com.

You are truely a hero! Your solution works very well. I have tested the easyrpg player with my homemade RPG and it works, as far as I have played, without any differences compered to the windows pc version. Thanks a lot!

@fluffypillow thanks again for putting this together. For better or worse it has inspired me to start on a Pi4 build and hopefully learn a bit more about this stuff. And to the rest of the team keep on doing the amazing stuff that you do.

@avih7531 The Wii emulator (dolphin) is only available for the PC builds, it can't run on a Raspberry Pi.

@mitu said in Removed emulationstation-dev help: @paffley Just install Emulationstation (the regular package) from the core packages section. Thanks @mitu I installed a fresh ES from binary then had to re-add es_systems.cfg content from an old backup I had (modified). All working now thank you! keep up the super work!

@BillyH If you haven't fiddled with the RA's configuration, the save files would stay alonside your ROM files, in the roms sub-folders. Once you access the file shares (\\retropie\roms), you can easily check the contents of those folder and see your save files (most of them have the .srm extension).

@Jareth247 Glad you got it working; I don't think the power switch script had anything to do with it - although the incorrect file that was causing the problem for apt could have been produced by an improper shutdown in the middle of an install operation.

Thank you @mitu You're a star :) Rob

@jareth247 You should open a new topic and provide the latest update log, as described in this topic. And please also add more information about your system - https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/3/read-this-first.

This is not implemented, you either update all installed or individually.

@mitu Thank for that info. I did remove the !kms and it build with no errors, but I get this when I try to run dosbox DOSBox version 0.74 Copyright 2002-2010 DOSBox Team, published under GNU GPL. Exit to error: Can't init SDL Unable to open mouse So it's a start...

@proxycell said in Building packages with retropie_packages.sh has terrible results!: it comes with some packages I'd rather avoid Which can easily be uninstalled through the setup script too.

@mitu and just to add a lot fo experimental packages are source only so it would make sense it takes a really long time to update if there are lots of experimental packages installed.

Hi both, Thank you for your responses. Popped out for a couple of hours, and it seemed to have completed. This ties in with the 3-4 hours stated above (Pi 3 Model B, Overclocked to 1.35ghz)

What about using a USB stick, would that work for you? Check out the documentation, in the Getting Started section there is a whole page on Transferring Roms: https://retropie.org.uk/docs/Transferring-Roms/ EDIT: Sorry re-read your post, emulators, not roms.....never mind

@BuZz That explains a lot, thanks ! My Murphy curse was at it again... @Darksavior you were right anyway ;)

Hello fellows. I would like to say thanks! The cec-utils package is pretty handy. The udev rules are perfect! The only addition I've made on my arcade build was adding a turn off monitor.sh script in RetroPie Menu. #!/bin/bash # turn off monitor.sh ################# # Actually puts the monitor on stand by mode. echo standby 0 | cec-utils -s -d 1
