      Just wondering if anybody was successful with MAME on the C2. I am pretty sure that I have the 0.78 rom set, yet both lr-mame2003 and lr-mame2003-plus generate segmentation faults when starting the rom.

      One thought that was occurring to me was the fact that the ubuntu for the Odroid is an aarch64- so everything's 64 bit.

      Anybody else having experience with that setup? I've come too far to give up now ;)

        After some investigation, I found out that I can get everything to work by starting retroarch via sudo from the shell. Without sudo, retroarch is crashing.

        Is there anything missing on the Odroid C2 in regards to permissions?

          Solved via sudo chmod u+s /opt/retropie/emulators/retroarch/bin/retroarch - not sure if this is the intended way though.

            Normally on a Pi, the pi user is part of the video and input groups so that it can access the controllers and GPU without problems. Maybe there's something similar on your system.

              @mitu that was my first thought as well but the retropie user that's being used on my system is already part of those groups.
