The issue you have with the config process bombing out is probably this:

Either that or you may have EmulationStation running in the background.

If its feasible you could start with a clean 2.4.2 image, then follow the guide?

Remember that the /etc directory is at the top level if you want to get to that, as opposed to being in /home/pi/ for example.

Hopefully some of my other videos below will help you.

Thanks, I may try the 2.4 tonight if I can get the boy off minecraft. How do you know if the EmulationStation is running in the background? If it is how do you stop it> One more noob question /etc directory is at the top level can you explain that a little more.

I may need to find some online Raspberry Pie programming classes to get me more familiarized of the programming may help.

Thanks for the Tips. Your videos seem to be the best I have found on youtube. I just get frustrated when I am going step for step and not getting the same results. I am the manager of Radio Control model company’s customer service and I get frustrated when customers that can’t figure out how to program a speed control and it comes so easy for me. I think this may be the same for you now I know what if feels like.

I have tried to config my controller several times like in the video at the 3 minute mark where is auto configs. When I do this the screen flashes black with some text that I can’t read in time and says complete and does not let me manually push the buttons. Also his option is 315 or 316 and mine is 317. I have been pulling my hair out with this.

The controller works for the emulator but not in game.

I have tried the video with using the winsp and I don’t have etc file that is shows in another video.

I really want to learn the code part of this but I just keep running into noob roadblocks. I am to the point I would ask if someone could remote in to my pie and help me with this.

May buy another remote and see if that would help.

A lot of the code typed in the videos that I do letter for letter I get the bash error not found type of stuff

Please Help!
