Obligatory Linux forum entry: Me too! ;-)

Exactly the same thing here – just to let you know there’s another one with that problem. I’m still investigating and trying different things to reproduce the problem, no luck so far, but for now I agree that it looks like it has something to do with ROMs in the corresponding folders.

[quote=56881]This happened to me today but I found that going to the Retropie config and updating absolutely everything fixed it. [/quote]

I tried that, no change at all. Further I updated the underlying Raspbian (I’m using the RetroPie SD Card Image) with
sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade -y && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade -y

I looked through the “usual suspects” in /var/log, but couldn’t find anything special so far. Are there any other logfiles to look for? If so, which ones could be the most important for this issue?

Right now I’m doing a complete, clean installation on a different SD Card, I’ll try to tinker with the HDMI-/resolution-settings, later I’ll try it on my secondary RPi. I’ll let you know when I find something.

BTW: Absolutely awesome work on that stuff! Now it just needs to work for me… :-)
