      Hi folks,

      I just installed Fofix but it doesn't work.
      If I check the /dev/shm/runcommand.log file, I have the following content :

          @shift said in Fofix problems:

          Fofix is not part of RetroPie Ports collection, so you probably use a 3rd party script. However, the error seems to be quite clear:

          (EE)
          Fatal server error:
          (EE) parse_vt_settings: Cannot open /dev/tty0 (Permission denied)
          (EE)
          (EE)

          Do you have the xserver-xorg-legacy package installed ? Try removing it and re-try.

            xserver-xorg-legacy

            You were right, the package was not installed. Now, after doing so, the mistake became this:

            Parameters:
            Executing: LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/opt/retropie/supplementary/glshim LIBGL_FB=1 xinit fofix

            /usr/lib/xorg/Xorg.wrap: Only console users are allowed to run the X server
            xinit: giving up
            xinit: unable to connect to X server: Connection refused
            xinit: server error

            Any idea? Thanks

              I said to remove it, not to install it. Exit Emulationstation, then run the command line that gives you the error - does it work ?

                I uninstalled the package.
                I'm exit from Emulationstation.
                I launched from the command line: LIBGL_FB=1 xinit fofix
                and I got this error :

                    @shift The log file has the same errors you pasted in the 1st place. Do this - install the Pixel desktop from the RetroPie-Setup menu and see if it works. The installation of the Pixel desktop should add a startxlink in the Ports system and set-up Xorg in the process.

                    If the desktop works, then try again with the port you're trying to make it work (Fofix).

                      the desktop works, but not fofix. I reinstalled the image of retropie 4.4 clean, I installed fofix, and then pixels, but nothing, same error.

                        @shift If the desktop works, you can run Fofix from the desktop session - does that work ?

                            I tried to run fofix from the desktop but it does not work. A window opens, but then closes and returns everything as it was before it was launched.

                                  Every port that I've created that uses Xorg and the glshim to function (including this one) no longer works with RetroPie. Ever since whatever changed in the last major release to Stretch, something's broken. We used to have a package installed to allow users to set up who has the right to open up xorg (I think it was xorg-server-legacy) but that apparently isn't what we're supposed to do anymore so... I have several of these packages that are currently unusable and I need someone's help to figure this out.

                                  Sorry, package is xserver-xorg-legacy.

                                    @zerojay OK, so I took a stab at this and the solution was right under our nose - https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/6304/desktop-from-ports-fails-to-load-4-1/25.
                                    So, long story short - instead of a simple xinit program, running it with xinit program -- vt1 -keeptty will not yield any more Xorg permission errors and actually starts the program.
                                    I tried with fofix and at least now it starts in X, but has some program errors after is started and it stops. I also installed crack-attack and it started with the selection screen, but unfortunately I don't have a keyboard and couldn't progress further. Supertuxkart looked like a good candidate, but downloading 0.5 Gb of game data was a bit much (and I tried crack-attack instead).
                                    Maybe you can give it a test and see if it fixes some of the programs depending on X and the ones depending on OpenGL.

                                        @mitu could you tell me the correct procedure to start fofix? is it enough to modify the file /opt/retropie/configs/ports/fofix/emulators.cfg or do I have to do anything else?? Thank you

                                          with this change:

                                          fofix = "LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/opt/retropie/supplementary/glshim LIBGL_FB=1 xinit fof
                                          ix -- vt1 -keeptty"
                                          default = "fofix"

                                          to the file /opt/retropie/configs/ports/fofix/emulators.cfg the result of fofix.log is the following:
