      Hello,

      I've installed Retropie on top of the latest Raspbian release with PIXEL as desktop environment. When I setup the pi to start into the desktop environment (using retopie-setup) I will see a PIXEL splash screen for a short moment and then the system ends in the console.

      How I can setup Retropie to start successfully into the pixel desktop environment and how I can add an entry into my Retropie frontend that directly runs PIXEL ?

      Thanks for your help. :o)

        @Dosenfutter set it from raspi-config

        Possible an update upstream changed things a tad (e.g https://github.com/RPi-Distro/raspi-config/commit/7dae58a9cb10eb9695a8ccb4e4aeaefd0096226f) @BuZz setup script for desktop boot may need another look after the latest raspbian release

        Or I'll give it a look perhaps if I can find the time one of these days
