For the 4.6.1 you should have the binary installation available - why aren't you installing from binary ?

Floppy

@mitu for retroarch it seems only source installation option is available

mitu

for retroarch it seems only source installation option is available

There is a binary installation available for Pi4.

What OS image did you use for installation ?

Floppy

@mitu i am using stock raspbian

Linux raspberrypi 4.19.97-v7l+ #1294 SMP Thu Jan 30 13:21:14 GMT 2020 armv7l GNU/Linux

mitu

Which version - the Lite or the Desktop version ? Did you do any re-configuration for the system ?

Floppy

@mitu i believe it was the lite version and i did not reconfigure any system settings. The source.list is also pointing to raspbian buster.

mitu

I think the reason your install doesn't work is because you modified your config.txt and removed the GL driver overlay - loaded by default and which is necessary for RetroPie to work on the Pi4 model.
Any reason you're not using the RetroPie image ?

Floppy

@mitu Can you help check if my config.txt is wrongly configured?

The reason why I insist on installing on existing os is that I am using hard drive for os and I try not to flash the image as it means I need to overwrite the hard drive.

mitu

@Floppy No, it's not correct - you disabled the necessary overlay for the GL driver, which is unsupported on the Pi4.

Floppy

@mitu you mean i should uncomment #dtoverlay=vc4-fkms-v3d?

Floppy

@mitu nvm, I shall just reflash the retropie pre-built image.
