      Is it possible to downgrade RetroArch?
      I tried to changed these files with the older ones of RetroArch 1.6.9 :

      • scriptmodules/emulators/retroarch.sh
      • scriptmodules/emulators/retroarch/01_hotkey_hack.diff
      • scriptmodules/emulators/retroarch/02_disable_search.diff

      Then I deinstalled RetroArch and installed it again.
      The problem is still present.
      Is there any reliable solution to downgrade to 1.6.9?

        I'll roll back sorry. I obviously didn't do enough testing - rebuilding from source should get 1.6.9 again now after updating retopie-setup. bins being rebuilt.

          @buzz No worries. Development is tricky. :)
          I'm just glad to find out my fresh install of RetroPie Web Console didn't cause this.

              binaries are back to v1.6.9 - Will do some testing / debugging of 1.7.0 on the RPI before updating again :)

                  @buzz At a first glance it seems the configure script enables X11 even if --disable-x11 is passed as an argument.
                  In 1.6.9, after running the /configure with the args for RPI3, config.mk contains HAVE_X11 = 0, but 1.7.0 produces a config.mkwith HAVE_X11 = 1. The resulting binary (for 1.7.0) also reports when running with --features

                    X11: X11 input/video drivers: yes

                      @psyke83 Thanks for looking into this and sorting out a fix. Might wait for the next point release, but will see.

                        @buzz np. If you do wait for 1.7.1, you may want to update the xmb assets at the same time - there's been a bit of activity in the assets repo that might impact it.
