I think there were some really strange Pi and CRT issues being reported on the Discord English support section. Prob worth joining the group and having a look back...hmm..maybe upto a week or so. 👍

@tincho113 Test with version 8.0 beta and report issues in this topic:
https://forum.recalbox.com/topic/25351/recalbox-8-0-beta

@medeis_jar
recalbox no version 6.5.1

the last version is recalbox 7.1.1

Désolé, j'étais passé à côté.
En tous cas merci, tout fonctionne nickel !

@Pitch64 Cool, thanks -- that's what I thought. As much as I get excited for new versions of these things, the thought of having to redo it all again can be so daunting!!

merci de ce retour mais je ne comprends pas comment connecté mon gpi case. Tout est OK dans les données saisies mais le statut est "déconnecté". Je suis allé dans l'interface en voulant virer le ; avec le texte wikikey= mais il n'y a pas de ;
le texte est déjà bon...
Du coup je dois ajouter des roms avec Paragon, je comprends l'idée. En revanche c'est difficile ensuite de désassembler? Car rien n'est précisé. Il faut désassemblé le tout avant de retirer la micro carte sd..

Hello
go to batocera forum for support.

Well, I managed to fix this issue. The fix is odd and probably specific to Dell machines but go into the BIOS and go to General -> Advanced Boot options, Untick Enable Legacy option ROMS

Machine now boots fine with joystick connected....

@fmo well obviously you can't use a one button paddle in a system which requires at least 4 to work (I mean Recalbox here)

If you think it will be easier to just get a different wifi dongle, I'd happily order one. I just don't want to do that only to find that the problem is not related to the dongle.

But, if there is a particular wifi dongle that is known to work well, I'd much rather pay the 10 dollars for it then spend a lot of time trying to diagnose this issue.

@minze just ping your gateway, or check if ifconfig returns anything other than loopback

@paradadf You're right! Thanks!

If it boot on gpu, then everything is explained ?
"don't take any risk (see what I did there ?) with the booting chip" on top of "things must not be peripherical dependant" which combos in "booting chip must not be peripherical depending"

This booting on gpu is surprising, but not totally from outer space when you considering pi's ARM nature 🙂
@Substring

I think it's possible to achieve what your usual computer does. There's no impossibility, but a lot to learn before doing that : to do this right, you must take this before kernel. I would have to document myself on that before coming with questions. IRQ is already little known territory to me, but ARM board IRQ may be very much alien space in my Windows guy's eyes : I learnt how from a pile of sand making something this is driven by hardware or asm drivers 20 years ago, there should be remains 🙂

@megatimx I just ordered a new controller, maybe something was wrong with that one. It should get here in a few hours thanks to the wonders of Amazon.

@qawert use select as hotkey 😉
