I have been trying it with no luck. In that page, I dont have /RetroArch-Rpi, but I do have /RetroArch/tools so its probably the same thing. Heres exactly what I did;

cd RetroPie/emulators/RetroArch/tools

./retroarch-joyconfig -o ~/RetroPie/configs/all/retroarch.cfg

Now it has me press the buttons to configure it.

I type in sudo reboot and it reboots

I can use the controller to move to emulators, and load a rom, but the controller does nothing when the rom starts. Also, if I have two controllers plugged in (I only set it up for one), when I press the second one a overlay pops up “joypad #1”, im guessing it knows its not set up for that one?

Did I get something wrong with the config procedure?
