      Ubuntu 24.04.1
      GNOME / Wayland
      Pi 5 / 8GB
      500G NVME
      USB-Sound

      When I start a retroarch game, EmulationStation shows game art in fullscreen without any window decorations, but the actual games have a menu bar at the top, even though they are started fullscreen.

      I have tried this: https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/34192/retroarch-fullscreen-setup-apper-as-window-with-ubuntu-23-04?_=1735730535194 , but does not work.

      Has anyone a suggestion?

        @dk23 not that I will know the answer, but I had this with PSP emulator, and N64 when setting up windowed mode in the txt files while exploring/experimenting the files and paths.

        I would help anyone who knows more if you'd share which console(s) you emulate and with which core.
