      Hi forum! I want access to my raspberry pi compute module 3 using virtual keyboard (I cant plug one keyboard), on retropie. Anyone knows what dependencies I need to install to use virtual keyboard (on retropie) using PuTTY on my desktop to access to virtual keyboard and config my retropie system using terminal??? Thanks forum! ((And sorry for bad english!)) ^^''

        There's no generic 'virtual keyboard' included in RetroPie (or Linux for that matter). What exactly are you trying to configure ?

        You can start the RetroPie Setup from your SSH screen session (by running sudo ~/RetroPie-Setup/retropie_setup.sh). You can configure EmulationStation or emulators with a connected joystick/gamepad or just simply by editing the configuration files from the SSH session.

        EDIT: if this is about your Chinese GP430 from your previous topic, then ask the vendor to provide you with support.
