hi all,

i just upgraded my hd to a 2tb disc, copied everything over from the 1tb, all is good.

except that the drive no longer mounts at boot, i have to quit ES, type in the commend “sudo mount -a” to mount the drive. restart ES and everything is back. from blkid, i get the following:

/dev/sda1: LABEL=”2TB” UUID=”18ba8ee8-7a31-4efe-8625-bd64e13790fe” TYPE=”ext4″

i have edited the /etc/fstab file with the following line:

UUID=”18ba8ee8-7a31-4efe-8625-bd64e13790fe” /mnt ext4 defaults 0 0

that line obviously works since “sudo mount -a” mounts the drive. did I miss a step?

thanks

Pi Model: B
RetroPie Version Used: 2.6.0
Built From: SD Image
USB Devices connected: None
Controller used: Afterglow Xbox 360 Controller (Lights off) x1 (Upper Right Port)
Error messages received: N/A
Guide used: (Mention if you followed a guide): Setting Up 360 controller
File: (File with issue (with FULL path))
Attachment of config files: (or use pastebin.com)
How to replicate the problem:

Im not even sure where the heck this went wrong. I know while in the middle of scraping data, the Pi stopped responding, unable to connect to SSH. Least I couldnt get it to respond via SSH so I pulled the plug on it to get it to boot off.

After plugging it in and it gets booted up.. It says 2 game pads are detected when I have only 1 and its been in just one slot the whole time, never removed. I did all the ‘configuring for Emulationstation’ then go to a random game in SNES. I get in and none of the buttons would work outside of B , Select and Start. I know I have the Xbox Controller Driver and rant he controller config through the Setup before I even started scraping. I back out, I ran the RetroPie Setup script to configure the controller again, this time it wont even read my button presses in the config at all.

I tried rebooting, but now Emulation Station is saying 3 gamepads are found..

What in the blue hells is causing all this shite to go wrong all of a sudden. No buttons are being recognized.

I have downloaded a rom set (0.106) that every game I try to start it tells me a list of files are missing. After opening the game zip I see the files in the zip that it says is missing. I am running the roms from a USB stick not the SDcard. Anyone have a clue as to what is going on here? This whole MAME and rom revision thing has been a headache. I thought the worst part of project was gonna be the woodworking lol. Thanks in advance.

Hi,

I have scoured the web and tried everything that has been suggested on forums but I am still getting a constant audio hiss/static from my RPi 2 running RetroPie 2.3/2.6 through the 3.5mm audio jack. I have tried the following:

– Several micro USB cables including good quality ones
– different power supplies
– updating RPi firmware
– tested through an amp and headphones directly connected to Pi

This is what I’m experiencing:

Boots into emulationstation and all seems fine. No audio hiss at all. I launch a rom (any rom) and I hear the hiss for about half a second and then the terminal appears while the rom is loading (there is no hiss while the terminal is on screen). The rom loads and the hiss starts again. When I exit the rom back to emulationstation the hiss is constant. There was no his when it first booted into emulationstation but there is after I exit the rom.

This seems so weird to me. I would appreciate any help.

Thanks.

I need help. I just can’t figure out my joystick issue. Sorry if this isn’t a RetroPie issue but I’m hoping someone can help. I can’t seem to find reference to others having this issue.

I am unable to play any games. The games run smooth. But the player sprite moves, pauses, moves, pauses etc over and over. I’ve checked all my connections. Tried different versions of retropie. Gone over every setting I can find. Started from scratch a few times.

Not sure how to get the logs out yet.

Running RaspberryPi 2B with a small USB interface PCB. I know I havn’t provided enough to go on yet. Please help me to help you help me… LOL but seriously. I don’t know if it’s my interface, pi or the software.

Among the other issues I’ve been having, the biggest one is the USB SYnc function. It worked all of 1 time. Plugged it in, it created the File directories on the drive, returned to my desktop, loaded up a few roms as a test. Ok, It worked, I go back, and Load a few more onto my thumbdrive put it back int he exact same port I had it in the first time. Reboot the pi, ES loads back up, nope, none of the games I added showed up. I haven’t touched any setting after the inital set up.

I checked BLKID everytime I Rebooted, it sees my thumb drive, but ES is not wanting to sync.

PI: Raspberry Pi 2 B
OS Build: SD Image
Controller: Xbox 360 Wired
Guide: The USB drive one for Roms after it didn’t work when I went to add more roms. And the First time setup for SD Card.
Filesystem Expanded: Yes
File Path: Not sure on that.

I did a search and I could find nothing on my issue.

Anyone have any idea on how to allevaite this, its really giving me a headache.

Hi.

I am trying to make my Retrolink N64 USB clone work under libretro n64, but I’m having some problems.

I copied retroarch.cfg from configs/all to configs/n64. I want to do a completely different configuration for n64. The problem is I can’t figure out how to setup the C-buttons or the Z.

There is not a input_player1_z_btn or input_player1_cdown_btn, and I don’t know if the emulator reads the c-butons as l2 or l3 or something like that.

Also, when I press B the emulator displays a message saying Control: Alternate or Control: Default and I can’t stop ir or disable control mode switching.

Any help?

I am having a bit of confusion with the controller configuration. I have a usb snes pad and it is working great in all the emulators except the pce engine emulator. In the pc engine emulator the 1 and 2 buttons are mapped to the B and Y buttons on the snes pad instead of being mapped to B and A like normal.

I check the retroarch.cfg located in:
/opt/retropie/configs/all/retroarch.cfg

I was going to copy out the controller info from the configs/all/retroarch.cfg and paste them into the retroarch.cfg located in the pcengine folder then modify them as needed but I am not seeing where the controller is mapped in the all/retroarch.cfg, all the controller settings are commented out.

I also changed the controller mapping in the osd you can pull up during the game and it worked great until i exited and reloaded the game, it then reverted back to the B and Y buttons.

Thanks

Hello,

I’m bought a WiFi USB adapter, the Edimax 7811 and the only way I can get it to connect to my WiFi is if I run the commands:

sudo ifdown wlan0
then
sudo ifup wlan0

This is my config:

pi@retropie ~ $ sudo nano /etc/network/interfaces

auto lo

iface lo inet loopback
iface eth0 inet dhcp

allow-hotplug wlan0
iface wlan0 inet manual
wpa-roam /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf
iface default inet dhcp

root@retropie:/home/pi# nano /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf

ctrl_interface=DIR=/var/run/wpa_supplicant GROUP=netdev
update_config=1

network={
ssid=”myssid”
psk=”mypassword”
}

it never connects automatically, have I missed something?
