      Hi guys,

      Been curating my rom collection on the Pi all day today. Went digging through the Raspi config and changed the setting for GLide to full GLide (with full KMA or whatever?) And now on boot I get an SDL error (Renderer and window failed to initialize). Is there any way to revert this without reinstalling?

      Thanks!

        @WetpantsMcGee run raspi-config and turn it off again.

          Can I access raspi-config from the command line?

            @WetpantsMcGee just enter sudo raspi-config in the CLI.

                Ok, that did the trick. Strangely though, after I changed the setting and tried getting back into the UI, the graphics were all black sans the menu options in the lower left. Went ahead and did a basic install, and now I'm back in business. Thanks @AlexMurphy and @BuZz !!

                Now to get Reicast working...
