It's working good for me here is what I found

RetroArch Linux devices
#1

Installed it on my Odroid-XU4. Used a Microsoft controller works real good on it.

I wanted to get the fan to not spin a 100% and looked on here and a link to a script. Found out the log in is root and root as the password. But I could only save to the 128GB USB flash drive I have on it. It’s read only OS. But looking at it with the log in I seen samba on it. So I just went there and so easy to drag and drop ROM’s there and just have it re-scan and they show up. Nice! On mine if I leave it for a wile and come back it’s locked up. I plug in a mouse and can’t get it to show the screen. I guess it goes to sleep and will not wake up.

I still have all my old games but so good to have them on a small system like this on a 1080 HDMI screen.

Neat and do a screen shot.

I guess they are working on so files will be saved just like they are on the real carts. I guess the real carts battery’s now are dead. Back then I open the carts up and use a clip to clip to the SRAM chips to my Commodore 1541 disk drive then I could see the 8K SRAM and save it to the 1541 disk. I tested it back then and can restore it too. I know my 1541 disk can still read them today.

Thank you for making this. So neat can run them on a lot of things today. Brings back good memory’s were I played them a lot. I got gym bags with my cartage games in them and they are full. That’s how meany I have.

Here is a photo of mine.


I got a old USB to old game controllers. Universal USB converter by GameMon Model No.:FT80D91 Be nice if this would work with that then could use the same controllers. I got that a long time ago I guess they my have better ones now that work. Any one know?

Thank you this is very good.

glad you’re enjoying it :slight_smile:

People have reported good results with the Mayflash USB adapters, and I think many of them are supported by RetroArch’s autoconfiguration profiles.

I found out if I just turn off my HDMI TV and then back on it don’t get any signal. I thought it was going to sleep and could not come back. But looks like it can’t get back from turning the monitor off and back on. Is there a fix for this?

This is the first I’ve heard of it. Someone on the Lakka subforum may be able to tell you more.

Tested this on another LCD TV and it’s the same. Turn the TV off and then back on and no signal.

This is on a Odroid-XU4 with a SD card not a eMMC. The SD card is a 64GB one. The USB flash drive is a 128GB one that’s were I have the ROM’s. It’s only using the power supply that came with it to power all that.

So I think it’s something wrong with the OS. It seems like when turn the monitor off it works a little more for a sec. So the Odroid-XU4 must be doing something when turning off the HDMI display.

I got the Mayflash N64 controller Adapter but can’t get it to work on the RetroArch. It does seem like a line of text comes up at the bottom of the screen saying it found one but it’s goes off fast and nothing happens when I push any thing on the N64 controller I have plug in the Mayflash.

Is there some setting to set it up to work with it?

Can I have both the Microsoft one plug in and this at the same time? The Microsoft one just works no settings.

Looking around in the file system I seen a file here:

/etc/retroarch-joypad-autoconfig/udev/Mayflash-N64-to-USB-Adapter.cfg In that file it has the same:

# Hex vid:pid = 0E8F:3013

As when I do a lsusb command and can see:

Bus 001 Device 008: ID 0e8f:3013 GreenAsia Inc.

Any one know why the N64 Controller Adapter don’t work on it then? Seems like it should.

I got another N64 controller plug in in the other port of the MayFlash and now it works. But how do I get back to the main menu? With the Microsoft controller is was the center round big button. That lights what what number controller it is.

I plug in my old 2006 gamemon USB controller Adapter and made this new file for it:

input_driver = “udev” input_device = “HuiJia USB GamePad” input_device_display_name = “Gampaq N64 to USB Adapter”

# Hex vid:pid = 19FA:8D91 -> Decimal vid:pid = 6650:36241 input_vendor_id = “6650” input_product_id = “36241”

input_b_btn = “2” input_start_btn = “9” input_up_btn = “12” input_down_btn = “14” input_left_btn = “15” input_right_btn = “13” input_a_btn = “1” input_l_btn = “6” input_r_btn = “7” input_l2_btn = “8” input_l_x_plus_axis = “+0” input_l_x_minus_axis = “-0” input_l_y_plus_axis = “+1” input_l_y_minus_axis = “-1” input_r_x_plus_axis = “-3” input_r_x_minus_axis = “+3” input_r_y_plus_axis = “+2” input_r_y_minus_axis = “-2”

input_b_btn_label = “B” input_start_btn_label = “Start” input_up_btn_label = “D-Pad Up” input_down_btn_label = “D-Pad Down” input_left_btn_label = “D-Pad Left” input_right_btn_label = “D-Pad Right” input_a_btn_label = “A” input_l_btn_label = “L” input_r_btn_label = “R” input_l2_btn_label = “Z” input_l_x_plus_axis_label = “Joystick Right” input_l_x_minus_axis_label = “Joystick Left” input_l_y_plus_axis_label = “Joystick Down” input_l_y_minus_axis_label = “Joystick Up” input_r_x_plus_axis_label = “C Right” input_r_x_minus_axis_label = “C Left” input_r_y_plus_axis_label = “C Down” input_r_y_minus_axis_label = “C Up”

When I go to save it it says:

Read-only file system.

Not even a mount -0 remount / will fix it.

Any way to wight a new file to it?

When I plug it in is says not configed on the button left of the screen.

Check your settings > directories and see where your ‘autoconfig’ directory is pointing. If that’s a read-only location, just change it to somewhere you can read/write and move your autoconfig there.

#10

I check and there is no autoconfig I can find:

Lakka:~ # find / -name autoconfig Lakka:~ # Lakka:~ #

I even mounted the SD card in another system. But could not find the OS on it in that.

Ok, if there’s no autoconfig directory yet, just find a directory you can write to and make one. You should then be able to use the online updater to fetch autoconfig profiles and/or place your hand-made one in there and have RetroArch find it.
