RetroPie 4.3.17 Stretch images

@hazey91 I don't really understand what do they mean by "3,6-6,5 V/6,5-9 V/9-12 V". The Raspberry Pi is designed with 5.1V in mind (the input current is safe at 3A). Sounds a bit risky, since I don't get how it selects the correct voltage for a device without any visible selector.

@hazey91
Be careful, USB chargers and RPi power adapters are often not equals.
Chargers tend to disregard power output regularity (you don't need regular power to charge a device), where dedicated power adapters focus on maintaining a steady output (which is critical for the RPi, but cost more to produce).

oops I meant 3A @ 3,6-6.5V
just wanted to post the original infos in general.
hmh yes you could be right.. but so far no error occured with it. I thought it can't be overvoltaged because the Pi would take only what it needs?

Does anyone know how to get the WI-FI working.
I tried filling in the information in wpa_supplicant.conf but still doesn't work.

~~You have to set the WiFi country in the raspi-config menu.~~

Edited this post out, because I didn't read the whole post and literally contributed to nothing...

@moekatz2 Try running sudo rfkill unblock all from the command line and see if Wifi connection starts working.

Thanks for the tip but I'm having trouble getting my second shanwan clone connected. I'm trying to pair as you said via the bluetooth menu, but just getting errors after select the ps3 controller in the device list to connect to. Any advice?

moekatz2

@mitu That did it. Thanks!

Hi, by running the retropie script it removes/uninstall the xserver-xorg-legacy package
i need it for one browser that is not working otherwise,how can i prevent it from been removed everytime?

@residentjim Please do not post a support request without first reading and following the advice in https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/3/read-this-first

start a new topic and provide details of set up and what browser you are referring to. this package should not be needed.

residentjim

This package is needed,not everything is working without it,is there a command when you run the scrip to bypass the removal of the package?
im talking about chromium browser,im not going to make a new topic as i get no help anyway in all my topics here.
