White flicker on moving through UI after update to 4.2.3
-
@RedBatman to update from source do the following:
exit to the command line terminal
cd /home/pi/RetroPie-Setup sudo ./retropie_setup.sh
Then follow @AlexMurphy instructions above starting with manage packages.
-
Dang, I already did via emulation station. Its still going.
-
@RedBatman Don't worry as long as it doesn't throw any errors at you. Just let it do its' thing.
-
Only concern is the red thermometer symbol popping up, Should I buy a fan?
-
@RedBatman Only if you really need it. My Pis tend to run at about 50-60 Celsius, give or take. Get a heat sink and take the lid off and let some air flow over it. They can get warm when being stressed but I wouldn't worry too much.
-
Im using the stock heatsinks that came with my cana kit
-
@RedBatman Just take the lid off then and let some air at it. When the Pi is updating it is working pretty hard.
-
@AlexMurphy Well i started this update almost 2hrs ago and its still going, is that normal? I have Comcast Blast internet
-
Damn what could be causing it to take so long.
-
@RedBatman I take it you are in North America. It could just be the local servers are busy at this time. What time is it on the east coast , 9:20pm?
-
Yep it 9:25pm right now, and my mirror is University of Maryland.
-
Okay so 15 mins ago it finished, I still get the white box but the scrolling is smoother now
-
@RedBatman Did you reboot?
-
@AlexMurphy yes I rebooted after I installed.
-
@RedBatman And you definitely updated from source and not the binary?
-
@AlexMurphy yes
-
@RedBatman And you are still seeing this?
-
So I guess I should wait for an official release of retropie?
No I'm not seeing that I'm seeing a white box flicker over the console logos.
-
@RedBatman Okay. What theme are you running?
-
@AlexMurphy Zoid, Carbon, Turnakafan, pretty much any except for the comic book one.
