up/down is not working and new config is not saving since update
-
Hi!
Sorry, I searched for this problem and even found some threads, but I think there are either different problems/solutions or I do not get it right.
I updated the RetroPie-Setup an all installed packages a week or so ago. after that I was on Setup 4.1.11 (now I am on 4.1.12)
after that update, which run fine (I think so!) I could not use the up/down on my stick in RetroPie menu. So I connected a keyboard to reach the Input onfig in RetroPie. After reconfig the Input everything was good in RetroPie menu.
When I start an Emu (RetroArch) there is still no up/down. So I press "Select + X" to get into Retroarch menu to reconfigure User 1 Binds where on up and down there is +3 and -3 - when I enter the stick it is +1 and -1 for up and down.
So far so good. Now I turn on save on exit and want to save current config. But this is not working.
I get an error: "Failed to save \opt\retropie\retroarch.cfg" <----- perhaps not exactly, i remember it right now :P
so, when i close the emu and start it again up and down is +3 and -3 again and auto save on exit is off.
I reinstalled Retroarch from source (as said in another thread) and updated RetroPie Setup again. that is 10 minutes ago.
The Threads I found (https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/1686/up-down-y-axis-not-working-in-3-8 , https://github.com/libretro/RetroArch/issues/2793 , https://github.com/RetroPie/RetroPie-Setup/issues/1383) had quite similar Problems, but in Version 3.7 to 3.8 - and those where fixed, I think.
So perhaps someone can help me? :D Please :P

Oh I am running RetroPie on a RPi3, since it is in a Bartop the Stick is connected via a USB hacked Pad

Sound similar to zero delay controller issue. You might try update the latest kernel:
sudo apt-get install rpi-update
sudo rpi-update

i did this now. it updated from 4.4.38 to 4.4.45 (i think ;) )
but no effekt.still got the up/down issue and when i change this in retroarch, I cant save this configuration.
shouldn't emulationstation automatically create a working config (RetroPad) for RetroArch, when I do the config in RetroPies Input dialog?
so there are 3 issues:
- why was up/down wrong in RetroPie after the update? (ok, not that important since I could fix this easily ;) )
- why can't I save a config in RetroArch?
- shouldn't ES create the right config for RetroArch without any further action?
