      Hi guys,

      I'm having a problem with my freshly new retropie install on my Odroid XU4. I followed the official installation guide (https://retropie.org.uk/docs/Odroid-XU3-XU4/), everything went fine until I tried to launch retroarch from the retropie menu: Nothing happened.

      I tried to launch it using command line, and here is what I got:

      retropie@odroid:~# sudo /opt/retropie/emulators/retroarch/bin/retroarch -v
      [INFO] RetroArch 1.8.4 (Git 9e25601)

      Segmentation fault
      

      Same result when I try to launch any game, here is the kind of logs I get in /dev/shm/runcommand.log:

      retropie@odroid:~$ cat /dev/shm/runcommand.log 
      Parameters:

      Hope you guys can help me, thanks in advance!

      My specs:
      Hardware: Odroid XU4
      RetroPie Version: 4.5.14
      Ubuntu version : 18.04.4 LTS (minimal)

        I've not tested on my odroid xu for some weeks. May be a recent change broke something. I'll check when I next get a chance.

        May be a retroarch issue.. you could try rolling back the RetroPie-Setup script and building the previous version. I don't have time now however to give instructions to do this sorry.
