@yfzdude said in Trouble creating desktop launcher file [SOLVED]:

I'm still curious if any GNU/Linux wizards know why the original method was not working. Either way it is working now.

Because runcommand needs a terminal to show the launch menu, launching ES directly would break this. On Debian and friends, you can use x-terminal-emulator as the terminal starting command, which would be expanded to one of the installed terminal emulators.

@mitu said in Shortcuts For Disc Swapping (Keyboard or Controller):

@alphabetapie I feel like I responded to your question in my previous post.

Somewhat. But the inputs in the config file are not clear that they represent both the keyboard commands (which I don't want), and the controller commands (which I do want). So I had to do some experimenting to sort that out on my own.

But also, in doing that, it seems I found a much simpler way than searching the input_disk_next_btn line in the config file and adding the button command manually. Would it not have been easier to just use this menu and set the button presses here on the controller? It's an option that does exactly what I want. Just hidden in the hotkey menu.

Here is what I mean below (and where some of the confusion comes from I think). At any rate, mission accomplished.

You are most welcome. :)

One further thing, I found by changing Terminal=false to true, then a terminal window will popup asking for a password, enter the password and it works.

So only conclusion I can draw is that it must be permissions related.

I'm the (proud??) owner of such a device but I prefer the Pie

What I meant - since you have one - maybe you can find an equivalent program to raspi2png for the Droid and be able to test it (not create one from scratch). Something like fbgrab or fbdump maybe.

@steve-bamford yes, sorry my response was a bit quick! I must have skimmed over your question. It's good to see others using xroar. I use it to play the 5 games I had on the Tandy 30-odd years ago.
