        @Substring sure, just installing it. Note i don't have a mic on this system - i can get hold of one in a few days, but for now it's just text chat. What's your server?

          @shamanmogz we've advertised it some days ago. No need for a mic

          By the way, we can do anneasier way : run bash -x /etc/init.d/S11share start and give me the output please

                @substring I just realised that although I changed the update option in the UI after a power cycle it hasn't persisted (so my last set of test results was invalid). Maybe I should change the updates.type value in the recalbox.conf file itself? If you agreem what should that value be?

                Also on a different note, I have 4x 2GB ram sticks kicking about. I tried to add them in but Recalbox refuses to boot. Is there a max ram limitation (i have a 64 bit processor and am using the 64 bit build). Actually on that note, how do I know if my GT 710 graphics card has been installed properly?

                lastly sorry for the delay - was away for the long weekend.

                    @shamanmogz said in x64 system running 18.04.20 doesn't work too well:

                    My system is a 64bit core 2 DUO (E6750) with a GT710 and 4GBs of RAM, 3TB HDD

                    Hi Shamanmogz,
                    I intend to buy a MSI GT 710 1GD3H LP --> according to what you say, GT710 works fine with RecalBox ?

                    Thanks 🙂

                      Well, the GT 710 works with RecalBox.
                      A bit laggy with Wii and GameCube (I use a 5 year-old compaq Elite, maybe I could tweak a bit) but it works.

                        Hi, I'd like to add my experience with the GT 710 on this page: https://github.com/recalbox/recalbox-os/wiki/PC-compatibility-(EN)
                        do I have to create an account, or use the pull request? (or simplier: I tell you my feedback and you paste it^^)

                        Thanks

                            GT 710 isn't properly seen.
                            I've tested Wii and GameCube with the GT 710 under Windows 10 --> perfectly smooth, filtered etc...

                            So GT710 not yet compatible with RB.

                                I'm not comparing, I'm explaining how I came to say that GT710 is not properly handled by RB:

                                • When launching dolphin, I can read up the screen that the GPU is correctly detected (yellow lines telling what GPU is detected, openGL etc..)
                                • ES, dreamcast, N64 perfectly smooth and sharp.

                                These 2 experiences let me think that GPU was correctly detected.

                                But as I could see under windows, it is not .
                                Indeed, wii and gamecube are waaayyyy smoother under Windows than RB.

                                So no complaining or comparison, only some tests to get some more precise and final answers.

                                    2: the integrated INTEL SANDYBRIDGE, and the PCI MSI GT 710

                                    (... pretty obvious to say, but of course, when I plug the MSI in, I use the corresponding VGA port, and not the Intel's one...)
