      Hey folks (and by folks I mean probably mitu who is the fast guru on answering stuff here)...

      I am doing a custom theme. I have everything laid out correctly (to the best of my knowlodge), as it matches other themes I've downloaded and nothing is out of place. Everything runs perfectly, as far as I can tell.

      BUT!

      I was poking around in my emulation station log file, and I see I'm getting this error at boot up every time:

      Parsing XML file "/home/pi/RetroPie/roms/nes/gamelist.xml"...
      lvl1: Warning from theme "/home/pi/.emulationstation/themes/custom/nes/theme.xml"
      (from included file "/home/pi/.emulationstation/themes/custom/nes/../nes.xml")
      could not find file

      Any idea what this is about or why it's generating this? Nothing is missing on my end. What is it looking for it can't find? My Retropie finds what it needs OK when I power on, all the menus load great. So not sure how it's happening.

        It's probably a harmless error - something like https://github.com/RetroPie/es-theme-carbon/issues/43. See if your theme has something similar, especially if it's based on Carbon.

          Yup, that was it. Harmless yes, but I like to clean things up as much as possible. With a few find/remove commands, all is well on that front.

          However, there is one more little error that's bugging me....

          "ARB_texture_non_power_of_two MISSING "

          Any idea what this is about? It's the only error left in my log. Research points to something from NVIDIA, not sure if that pertains here.

            That's not an error, but a debug message when starting and EmulationStation checks the GPU's OpenGL (ES) features/extensions.

              @mitu So what is it looking for that it's not finding? I'd like to acquire it to fix the error.

                It's not an error and you can't remove that message without modifying the source - so it's not a configuration option you can change.

                  @mitu Ah, OK. I thought perhaps I was just missing some kind of extension or plugin or something related to the setup that I could download/add that would allow it to find whatever it was missing.
