@kenibure said in I cannot use this system correctly.:
Problem number 1:
When I try to reboot the Raspberry, the graphic interface disappear, and then appears a command console. I would have to make "sudo reboot" or "sudo poweroff", but then, the system doesn´t detect my keyboard.

I can confirm this is a common problem - especially when the program encounters a fault and exits to terminal. To properly shut down the computer I have to SSH into it and "reboot" since you can't use the keyboard hooked up to the Pi anymore at that point.

...can't help you with how to fix it I'm sorry to day.

Hi!

What type of iBuffalo controller are you trying to setup? The famicom version (red and gold) or the snes version?

I started a new topic on this and I hope to get some replies to help me out... Are you still having this issue? If not how did you get it to work?

Thank you and have a nice day!

@eweek reinstall emulationstation using retropie_setup and you'll get the file again.

@martinnoren I just had boot problems with my sd card. It is a 8gb, it would boot NOOBS and raspian but not retropie. I found a 32gb sd and now the retropie image boots just fine. This was on a rpi 1b it's an older model. I know you said your SD was a 16gb but I thought this information might help.

Thanks BuZz! That made it. I hope it will now stay like that in the future.

did you ever find an answer to this?? i have the same issue

I'm assuming missing bios file

@santiagozky It seems the issue is not with the USB controllers but with the steam controller. Problems only appear if I unplug the controller's dongle from the PI. I disabled the driver from the setup script and everything is fine now.

Which version of Advmame are you using in both instances?
Which game are you trying?

@Rascas
Thanks
Now after a quick format my USB works
Cannot understand the reason but i'm happy that now works:)

@BuZz I'm having the same problem, could this be the reason I cannot add the Bluetooth sources and drivers because the files need to unpack?

@edmaul69 Yes! such an option does not exist there. in Pico Drive all ok. the problem is not with retropie. problem with fresh core LR genesis plus.

Yeah, I'll probably go with the complete reinstall. I think I power the Pi correctly. (powering up by connecting the Pi to the Power Supply and shutting it down directly from the Emulation Station) Thanks for the help anyway! At least it gave me the clue for what might have happened.

EDIT: Yes, the reinstall did its job. I connected to the internet with no problems! I wonder what was the cause... Thanks a lot!

Solved it.
I opened the config TAB menu of the MAME emulator.

The mapping was messed up for some reason.
Here is how it looked like for the first 4 buttons of Player 1

P1 button 1 = LCTRL or RetroPad1 B (This one is correct)
P1 button 2 = LALT or RetroPad1 Y (This one is also fine)
P1 button 3 = SPACE or RetroPad1 X (This one is supposed to be mapped to LSHIFT)
P1 button 4 = LSHIFT or RetroPad1 A (This one is supposed to be mapped to SPACE)

Buttons 3 and 4 are rightfully mapped as RetroPad X and A, but for some reason, the first values (SPACE and LSHIFT) were switched.
What I did is to edit the value by hand with the keyboard.

If you compare the mapping for the X and A buttons with the MAME retroarch.cfg you will notice the difference.
input_player1_a = "space"
input_player1_x = "shift"

Have no clue why this happened, but it works now. :)

Thanks for the info :-)

Sorry Mate. My bad.

i reinstalled retropie this morning and now the controlblock doesnt work no more but it fixed the sound issue :D thx for your help
