Using 1.7.8 on Mac OS X on 10.14.4 Mojave I used to be able to navigate menus with keyboard/joypad. This afternoon keyboard and mouse input ceased working after RetroArch displayed a white screen ā had to hard power off the system.
Iāve since reinstalled by removing Retroarch from Applications and removing its directory from Application Support, forcing a new retroarch.cfg to be created.
Here is the --verbose:
