    Hi. Seems like i have the same problem as herbargus. (not sure if i should post a new topic since its marked as resolved)
    Im running on 2.4.2 image. and everything worked fine before.
    Now i got as above mentioned only sound and black screen on both scumm and dosbox. have tryed mode change and enabling dispmanx to no use. (in dosbox it kinda worked but everything seems more “choppy” somehow) scummvm only gave me the same error message herb got. also tried reinstalling through source in retropie setup.

    is there a way round this aside of reinstalling the image? iv put a lot of effort in the current one, id hate to start at scratch.

    On another note. Thanks for all the work you guys have put in.
    And the community seems very friendly :)

    thanks for the tut. exactly what i was looking for. :)

    (microtip for those wanting to run .bat files for starting some of their games from this tut : add “exit” to the bottom of the bat file so it exits back to es instead of getting dumped into dos when exiting the game)

    “cd <foldername>” puts you into a folder
    like this your example : cd /home/pi/RetroPie/roms/mame/
    then when in the desired folder :
    rm <filename> means remove that file, as floob says

    (“cd ..” brings you one step out of folder “cd /” brings you to root)

    im pretty new to these forums … “hello” : ) and a total noob at both retropie and linux but already having a blast.

    i havent tried fastdosbox yet but the rpix86 emu seem to to run at a speed of around 20MHz 80486 (which equals a 40MHz 80386 machine) according to dev page”.
    i run the latest sd image and iv only been fiddling with the default rpix86 to run the dos games i have laying around. For those not getting these to run, all you have to do is put the games in folders in the /opt/retropie/emulators/rpix86/ (and not home/Retropie/roms/pc folder) run rpix, and in the dos promt run them as normal. they work ok at my end that way. havent been able to make them show up in emulationstation yet but i can probably make a multichoice bat file to be called from the start.sh file when launching ibm/rpix from the es.
    would be nice to hear of someone has better experience with dosbox though.
    angelus – if they run slow – are those games supported by scummvm btw? worth a shot maybe if they are supported..
