Odroid XU4 SDL Problem Emulationstation
-
@ray3d said in Odroid XU4 SDL Problem Emulationstation:
In the odroid how do you update to latest retropie without harm the actual content?
You just update the RetroPie script and/or the Retropie packages, without updating the OS.
Sorry I can't be of more of assistance, I don't have an XU4 to test.
The command I mentioned before would reinstall the RetroPie SDL library for your, just in case the system upgrade has overwritten.
Which version is currently installed ? You can find out using:dpkg -l | grep -i libsdl -
Ok I give the command and these were the results:

-
@ray3d You seem to have the correct SDL library installed (2.0.8+1mali is installed by the RetroPie script).
The advice about the OpenGL experimental driver on the PI doesn't apply to Odroid. -
Yes it seems correct. I will try to look for more but Is very strange. Everything is there.
-
@ray3d Are you running Emulationstation from the terminal or from the desktop environment ?
Try running it like this from the terminal
SDL_VIDEO_EGL_DRIVER=/usr/lib/arm-linux-gnueabihf/mali-egl/libGLESv2.so emulationstation --debugand see if you get a different result.
-
I’m running now all the tests via SSH: I gave your command and these are the results:
SDL_VIDEO_EGL_DRIVER=/usr/lib/arm-linux-gnueabihf/mali-egl/libGLESv2.so emulationstation --debug lvl2: EmulationStation - v2.7.6rp, built Mar 31 2019 - 02:33:22 lvl2: Creating surface... lvl2: Created window successfully. terminate called after throwing an instance of 'std::logic_error' what(): basic_string::_M_construct null not valid Aborted pigame@odroid:~$What means that?
-
@ray3d Looks to be working, you're using an older version of Emulationstation and there's something wrong with your installation.
Did you install from the RetroPie-Setup script or from a 3rd party image ? Did you update your RetroPie-Setup script - what version are you using ?
-
I had from last year the image and I constructed carefully but I didn’t remember present these problems but now I’m a fool because I didn’t make the backup of some things :( Look this is the file: “retropie_packages.sh” and it says _version="1.65 FINAL". What I did is go to:
sudo ~/RetroPie-Setup/retropie_setup.shThen update retro pie script and that’s all because I don’t know how to update more. Well what I did also went to manage then core and update all from source that are the two things I did nothing else. How can I update maybe with commands and not the GUI? But I don’t know how.
-
@ray3d Can you show a screenshot after the start of the setup script - the version should be shown there. The
retropie_packages.shscript is not showing the version. -
This is the picture of what I see:
-
@ray3d This is not the RetroPie-Setup script distributed by the RetroPie project - it's probably a 3rd party image (ORA maybe ?). We don't support those images, you should probably ask the creator(s) for support.
-
I installed everything as it says here with the latest version:
https://retropie.org.uk/docs/Odroid-XU3-XU4/
I deleted from the retropie setup directory:
Now I see:
But same error emulationstation. or line for same error. When I installed the new retropie it took almost 3 hours it was a lot of time but did nothing. Same SDL error :(
-
@ray3d did you ever figure this out?
