Some results: I'm using this adapter: http://www.amazon.com/Retrolink-Nintendo-NES-Adapter-Entertainment-System/dp/B000PDOTXG/ref=pd_bxgy_t_text_y with an original NES controller. It works, but the buttons are different than the "official" controller: A is button 0 B is button 1 Select is ...

The chmod +x changes privileges for running the Program and you will have to do this EVERY TIME you run it! Another GOOD reason to compile yourself as there will be NO NEED to do this!

This is incorrect. chmod +x puts execute permissions on a file permanently.

When the come in the mail (within the next week) I'm going to be testing some USB adapters for NES and SNES controllers, since I have 2 original NES and 1 original SNES controller already. I'll post my results and input configurations here.

Awesome, that's exactly what I was looking for. If it wouldn't step on your toes too much, would you mind me setting up a branch to work on glint-snes?

jlongstreet

Looks great! I'm curious about a couple of things: You mention that there's currently no way to exit RetroArch without the keyboard. It looks like a method like http://forum.themaister.net/viewtopic.php?pid=1065#p1065 would be useful: set input_enable_hotkey_btn to, say, Select, and then set input_e...

That's not strictly speaking exactly what's happening (there's still vblank on CRT TVs), but it's along those lines. Modern HDTVs do lots of postprocessing effects on the frame, which can take several frames (up to 4 or 5 frames, or nearly 100ms). Many HDTVs have a "Game Mode" that can be ...

Wow, cool! Out of curiosity, what makes OsmOse faster than, say GenPlusGX or DGen? Is there some dynamic recompiling going on, or a better rendering pipeline, or just faster m68k/z80 cores?

I'll have to check it out. It might also be a candidate for porting to libretro for use in RetroArch.

If I don't have eth0 plugged in at boot, it works fine. My plan is to have it connected to my stereo, headless and wireless, so it's not particularly important that external routes don't go through wlan0 when ethernet is plugged in.

jlongstreet

I've just gotten WiFi working on my Pi. However, when eth0 is down, because it's unplugged or I've brought it down with ifdown, there are no external routes, only 192.168.1.0/24. pi@raspberrypi:~$ sudo ifup eth0 <snip> bound to 192.168.1.146 -- renewal in 227271 seconds. pi@raspberrypi:~$ route Kern...

If you're on Raspbian, the armel .deb is not going to work (I don't think). Raspbian is armhf. That's why you have to use the --force-architecture to even get dpkg to think about it.

You need to find the source code for that CPS2 emulator and try compiling it yourself.

jlongstreet

It's not going to work, period, regardless of the memory.

jlongstreet

Yeah, I also noticed the problem some time ago but though it would have been fixed by now. It seems that it was fixed a month ago in libretro , but perhaps that's not yet included in RetroPie binaries. Petrockblog: could you check the version of fceu/libretro in the RetroPie binary, and recompile i...

If DGen works better than Genesis-Plus-GX, I might see what would need to be done to make a libretro port. Could be fun :) Me and the other devs are always looking for more ports. If you want to take a crack at it, check out libretro.h , it describes the API pretty well. There was a more in-depth P...

If DGen works better than Genesis-Plus-GX, I might see what would need to be done to make a libretro port. Could be fun :) I'd help ya.. I know my way around code. Just not sure how that would help the situation? If possible, I'd like all my emulators running through RetroArch -- one set of control...

Is there anything special needed to get two controllers (Xbox 360 wired pads) working with RetroArch? I've got xboxdrv running twice and driving both controllers, and retroarch-joyconfig picked up the second one to configure it. My .retroarch.cfg looks like this: input_player1_joypad_index = "0...

Hmm, it seems that the memory barriers are still not supported, even after compiling for -march=armv7-a: pi@raspberrypi:~/profiletest$ LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/lib gdb ./test GNU gdb (GDB) 7.4.1-debian Copyright (C) 2012 Free Software Foundation, Inc.

Problem: Every time we start emulation station and run a ROM, the Raspberry Pi freezes after about 5 minutes of gameplay and needs a reboot. It simply locks up, and no keyboard inputs are recognized. All LEDs are on, on the Pi. Are you updating the firmware before using retroarch? There is a bug in...

jlongstreet

Yeah, it looks like OProfile is too much trouble for the moment. I'm building gperftools now. I needed to add "-march=armv7-a" to CFLAGS and CXXFLAGS to get it compiling, because Debian armhf apparently targets ARMv4 out of the box. I'm going to post a bug on the google code page about tha...

I got oprofile building yesterday, but when I try to run operf: pi@raspberrypi:~/oprofile-0.9.8/pe_profiling$ operf Unexpected error running operf: No such device Please use the opcontrol command instead of operf. main() calls _check_perf_events_cap(), which does a __NR_perf_event_open syscall.

What if any profiling tools have people had success with? I'd like to do some performance optimizations for emulators running on the Pi. I've never done CPU profiling in Linux before, but I'm intermediate-level experienced with Linux. I'm perfectly comfortable recompiling or making intrusive source ...

jlongstreet

It's not 100% ready for primetime yet, but you're going to want to look at the efforts towards running RetroArch on the Pi: http://www.raspberrypi.org/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?f=78&t=67500 , and especially the EmulationStation frontend and the RetroPie setup script: http://www.raspberrypi.org/phpBB3...

Right, have been off this for a few weeks, am back playing around now :D I have NES games working fine, but am still struggling with Track and Field through MAME. I'm using the new Turbo mode and a 192/64 memory/graphics split. Here's a vid: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OYtZBSbotO8&feature=y...

jlongstreet

I would second that -- while I'm interested in both, there's not a whole lot of overlap.
