      Recently purchased a Raspberry Pi3 installed w/ NOOBS. I downloaded RetroPie and completed setup and can boot into EmulationStation without an issue.

      However, when loading a GAME - my PS4 controller does not work (it does work on the GUI though)

      Second, how do I run Emulation Station from the desktop? Typing emulationstation in terminal only yields errors:

      lvl0: Error initializing SDL!
      No available video device
      lvl0: Renderer failed to initialize!
      lvl0: Window failed to initialize!

      I know its two questions but I appreciate any help!
