      Hi All,

      So I have managed to get retropi setup and working correctly. I have tested some snes and N64 games and they run fine. I am struggling to get beetle psx working. I have copied the BIOS files into the retropi\BIOS folder and named them correctly ensuring they are all lowercase.

      When I try to load up a psx ROM all I get is a black screen, no error message or anything. I have to alt f4 to exit. I installed it using the optional packages menu. One thing I did see in the documentation was this line: "To run this core, the "system directory" must be defined if running in RetroArch." Is this something I need to do manually? If so, how do I do this?

      I'm a Linux Noob so please go easy on me!

      Thanks in advance.

        Its working now. Seems like between the time I installed it (last night) to now there has been a change. Running the update all packages resolved the issue!
