“Failed to start load kernel modules” (SOLVED)

cynital

@mitu i got it from retropie website and installed the official image, i dont want to lose all my stuff on here, i installed screen savers and bezles and kodi, is there a way i could back it up?

mitu

@cynital If you installed the official image, I guess it's ok to keep it like this, but unless you're able to provide some logs/diagnostic info, I'm afraid I can't help you.

cynital

@mitu where could i do that? Im on a pc rn too looking at “bios” “configs “roms” “splashscreen” just tell me what i have to do, i could aslo go to my pi, and i just installed ssh

mitu

@cynital OK let's try again. To get the system log

dmesg > /home/pi/RetroPie/roms/dmesg.txt

Look in the roms folder via the file share on the PC and the dmesg.txt file should be there. Upload it to pastebin.com.

cynital

i looked in roms but cant find dmesg.txt

cynital

@mitu i found it its a bunch of stuff right?

cynital

@mitu https://pastebin.com/aamiR6hU i pasted it

mitu

@cynital OK, let's give it another shot. Reboot, plug in your controller and try to see if it work. Obviously, it won't work - as you reported. Exit Emulationstation, then execute the following command at the terminal

dmesg | nc termbin.com 9999

The command will automatically upload the log and will print an URL. Copy that URl and paste it here.

cynital

@mitu i got this, /http://termbin.com/a4fc with out the slash in the front tho cause it wouldent let me post with out it cause its "spam"

mitu

@cynital From the looks of it, you're using xboxdrv - remove it and reboot. Then

update the RetroPie script
update the xpad driver from the RetroPie driver section.

Reboot and then see if you can configure both your controllers.

cynital

@mitu i removed xboxdrv and rebooted then i updated retropie set up script then rebooted then updated xpad then rebooted still cant configure the xbox one afterglow wired controller, it also says in the command thing failed to start load kernel modules, the main goal is to get this controller to work

cynital

@mitu i pasted it again https://pastebin.com/DCFh33E7 also if you want me to do dmesg | nc termbin.com 9999 i can

cynital

@mitu ok so the error is gone and it and does say failed it says active heres a updated pastebin https://pastebin.com/twN4P9Hb and this http://termbin.com/abs5 that problem is solved but the controller will not config still

mitu

The controller appears right now, but I don't think it's picking the correct Xbox driver (xpad) - it's not recognised as an Xbox controller.

cynital

@mitu then what do i do?

cynital

@mitu is there a way i could make it work? or anything

mitu

@cynital Give me a few minutes to see if we can pull this off.

cynital

@mitu alright thank bro for all your time, at least we solved the "failed" issue, just let me know when you find a way or something

mitu

OK, since you're the only one with said controller, you have to compile a new driver version. So:

exit Emulationstation
open the driver's package script in an editor - run the command

nano /home/pi/RetroPie-Setup/scriptmodules/supplementary/xpad.sh

edit line 28 and replace

gitPullOrClone "$md_inst" https://github.com/paroj/xpad.git

with

gitPullOrClone "$md_inst" https://github.com/cmitu/xpad.git

then save the file (Ctrl+o to save,confirm then exit with Ctrl+X).

reinstall the xpad driver from the RetroPie-Setup script then reboot. See if the controller is detected and you can configure it.

After you do the steps above, you need to revert the changes you've made

exit ES
execute
cd RetroPie-Setup
then run
git reset --hard

Report back if it worked or not.

@mitu what line is 28
