      It looks that is affect and the building of lr-swanstation from Retropie-Extra repo. So, if someone want to install this emulator add the arm_64bit=0 to config.txt file, reboot and then try again.

        @mitu Forgive me if this seems obvious but I do not see where the config.txt file is stored in this thread. Where is it?

            @stabicron It's on the boot partition of the sdcard and you also can find it at /boot/config.txt from your running system. You can run

            sudo nano /boot/config.txt
            

            to edit the file after you exit EmulationStation.

              It's going to affect more than one package, there are quite a few emulators that use uname -m to determine if the system is 32 or 64bit and set the build parameters accordingly. There's no point in keeping track of them, since running a mixed 64/32bit kernel/userspace is not a very common configuration.

                @mitu Thank you. Just tried it and worked for xpad and a couple of the others that were running into the same thing

                    It looks that the change that was added to Raspi Buster Lite, was a mistake. Soon an update will fix this.

                      The updated packages (kernel/firmware-bootloader) for have been released for Buster, the modifications suggested earlier to config.txt should not be needed anymore.
