Cannot find where stella is located. 2600daptor not recognized

I cannot find where stella is located. The 2600-daptor ii used to automatically detect and work. Now it isnt even detected as a controller in stella so i cant map it to the paddle settings.

~~I believe it's /usr/bin/stella.~~

on latest retropie-setup it is in /opt/retropie/emulators/stella/bin or so (before we used the debian package).

I plan on reporting a bug to the main project and need a quick word of advice. After Stella exits, the Runcommand menu is no longer accessible until the system is rebooted in a similar way to the behavior seen in DraStic. Would I be correct in reporting that it is not clearing the framebuffer properly?

@mediamogul perhaps, but it might be a specific issue with sdl2 on RPI. I'd have to look into it

@mediamogul with my issue also none of my keyboards work in retropie setup after running stella. Only my first controller works.

@edmaul69

none of my keyboards work in retropie setup after running stella.

Throughout all the different emulators and ports or is it isolated to the bash menus?

@mediamogul i have only seen it happen today while trying to setup my controls for stella since adding an ipac. I have gone down to just a keyboard and my 2600-daptor. Unfortunately i hadnt used my atari paddles on my 2600 daptor since i believe it was the sdl2 had to be rolled back due to some issue. I cant check right now because i have it updating all installed packages. But i was having problems inside stella with my keyboards stopping working. I would have to use a controller to exit. When i went back into stella it worked again until i went back into the tab menu and tried to setup my 2600-daptor ii.

@mediamogul @BuZz so i did an update all installed programs including underlying os and now stella auto detects the 2600-daptor and auto sets it to player 1 and 2 paddles without the need to set them up as it is supposed to do. So just as @mediamogul posted after using stella, keyboard stops working in runcommand, retropie setup and all that linux stuff including the commandline. Works fine in other stuff. Controller 1 still works fine in that stuff.

@BuZz @mediamogul i found that playing the standalone tyrquake messes up the keyboard for linux stuff as well.

@edmaul69 mupen64plus also does this.
