      advmame appears to only show in the top left corner at a tiny resolution.

      Added this section to the OP so that I don't lose it.

        Hi there!

        Would any one of you have an idea why my lr-mame2010 on my XU4 based on the 4.14 kernel (minimal image from December 2017) would not load roms?
        When I manually launch the core with retroarch in the command line then I can see mame-2010 always complaining that it does not find any of the files even though those files are definitely part of the rom's zip archive.
        I double and triple checked if the roms are really 0.139 but they are and they work on a Rpi3 mame-2010 build.
        File permissions on the arcade folder (that's where they are stored on my build) are set to rw-rw-r--.

        What am I missing - why does mame-2010 not like my roms? :)

        Best,

        Tillman

        P.S. I just built lr-mame2010 directly via the retropie-setup.sh script - allegedly without any issues.

        *** UPDATE ***

        I can confirm that the issue is definitely caused by the new build.
        I have replaced the core with a known-to-be-working build from a couple of weeks ago and all roms work flawlessly.
        Only the new build complains about the missing files (all of them) inside the zip.

        So what might be causing this?

        Best,

        Tillman

          @zerojay Hi there!

          I was wondering if you also encountered the lvl0 failed to get mixer ALSA issue after you have installed Retropie on your XU4 with kernel 4.14.
          It is not really a critical issue for me as sound works in the snap videos and also in all the emulators but it sure looks not so very polished seeing this error appear in ES when switching the systems.

          Any idea how to fix this?

          Best,

          Tillman

            I switched over to the premade image based on kernel 3. Sorry.

              Updated the method of getting full screen on advmame to allow it to be automatic and a bit more... proper.

                Does anyone has been able to get scummvm working on xu4. Emulator install should be in "opt" section according to scumm.sh file but it is not.

                  @yaazzz It's likely masked out with a !mali flag. You can remove it and you should then see it show up in RetroPie-Setup. Try installing it and let us know if it works.

                    Thank you : that's was the trick. Everything went well : compilation and game launch. I only need To understand how To use the Ds3 with scumm now.

                      @yaazzz if it works fine, I can enable scummvm for mali targets. Thanks.

                        Good morning. I tried to compile Dolphin but it seems I brake the system as I got the following messages :
                        lvl0: Error creating SDL window!
                        Could not initialize EGL
                        lvl0: Renerer failed to initialize!
                        lvl0: Windows failed to initialize!

                        Before touching anything I would like to get your feedback on what is the best solution to recover.

                          You upgraded your version of SDL2 to whatever is latest in Ubuntu and therefore broke emulationstation, most likely. You'll have to run the installation again to get the original SDL2 installed.

                          I'm not sure why you are compiling Dolphin as I really don't see it being something usable on an ODroid XU4.

                            Hi, thank you for this feedback. You are Right I don't know why sometimes I am so stupid :) So I tried what you suggest without success. By the way as I didn't reboot after the scumm install please let me check again if it is not the origin of the brake.

                            For people having a cloushell please disconnect the disk and cloudshell for the first boot, make :
                            apt-get update
                            apt-get upgrade
                            apt-get dist-upgrade
                            apt-get install linux-image-xu3
                            poweroff

                            Then reconnect USB and connector to the cloudshell.

                              I confirm it is working without the !mali flag. Enjoy!

                                Hi,

                                I have problems with RetroPie on XU4 too.

                                For example, on Ubuntu 18.04, I can't build RetroArch :
