No games only errors? :(

RetroArch Linux devices

I have been trying to get RetroArch and Emulation Station running and nothing works all I get are errors that seem to have nothing to do with the game or emulator I am trying to launch…

============================================== RetroArch [WARN] :: patch_content :: Did not find a valid content patch. RetroArch: rarch_log_libretro: [libretro INFO] :: NstDatabase.xml path: /mnt/Data/ConsoleGames/SegaBios/NstDatabase.xml RetroArch [WARN] :: rarch_log_libretro :: [libretro WARN] :: NstDatabase.xml required to detect region and some mappers. RetroArch: rarch_log_libretro: [libretro INFO] :: [Nestopia]: Machine is NTSC. X Error of failed request: BadValue (integer parameter out of range for operation) Major opcode of failed request: 153 (XFree86-VidModeExtension) Minor opcode of failed request: 10 (XF86VidModeSwitchToMode) Value in failed request: 0x2b7 Serial number of failed request: 37 Current serial number in output stream: 39

I get that when trying to launch a SNES game and my atari 2600 roms don’t even show :confused:

if needed I can provide any info you need I will even screen share teamviewer anything I have been trying for 2 weeks to get this thing working :stuck_out_tongue: lol

well, it appears you’re trying to launch SNES games with the Nestopia core, and that’s definitely not going to work. I don’t have any experience with emulationstation but you’ll need to get it to use the proper core libraries for your ROMs.
