F.A.Q
There is a popup telling me there is an update! Wow you're fast!
NO! NO! NO! No update at all until the final release! update = crash

@zing yep, it will more be an issue of drivers (and linux kernel I suppose) than anything else.
What I meant is that, contrary to arm board it doesn't require any porting or specific development, at least theorically, and has a better chance of beeing supported by recalbox one day than any arm board

I want to play in the Recalbox with a PS3 controller

@cometsarcade this is not an official system'of recalbox at all, so no support for it

@angryfruitsalad you'll find all configuration info here : https://github.com/recalbox/recalbox-os/wiki/Keyboard-encoder-configuration-(EN)

But contrary to what is said in the tables, do not change key mapping, keep the default

@joinski Thank you!!!, it worked! Yes, I've already had it configured, but did it again and now it works with Kodi.

It's now up again

I have the same problem. Don't know how to fix it.

@bernardoortega well obviously you didn't even try to read arcade documentation and you know nothing about it. Start by reading the wiki

Thank you for your help!
Fixed with a manual fscheck; system updated to 18.04.20 successfully and seems to be stable.
I'll keep an eye on the sdcard, but for now everything looks fine.
Thread can be closed, have a nice evening everyone!

@substring Thanks to that I've found that on the daemon, it searched for one .conf on another place. Now I've solved and it's fully working without problem.
If I have time, this weekend I'll make the tutorial for recalbox. If I do it, it'll be at least for GDrive, maybe for onedrive too (can't promise anything as it should be almost the same).

I have the same issue you're encountering. I tried the same things you've done and it doesn't work. It do works on the RPI3, but it looks like the XU4 have a different way to boot the system.

Have you found any way to fix this? Thanks!

Very ending note for today, i promise! Actually the only way the virtual pad works for me is to set as player 1 input in the controller config options screen. Suppose on 2 player game it would work as input player 2 but that'all for today!

Ive also used bluetooth virtual gamepad app from the play store and both phone and raspberry 3 (im using a mod b) see each other but are not able no enstabilish a connection, because these apps - provided bluetooth or not - nedd a server to be installed on the receiving machine the raspi in my case, but since it is too much for me gonna not even try :(

So I feel like I will have to wipe clean/reinstall my sdcard... No solution ? Anyone ?!
