Tried this exactly as you wrote but with the current stable build on a Pi3b. What happens is this: https://i.imgur.com/KJeZjIa.jpg
Here is my config:
## GPIO Controllers
## enable controllers on GPIO with mk_arcarde_joystick_rpi (0,1)
controllers.gpio.enabled=1
## mk_gpio arguments, map=1 for one controller, map=1,2 for 2 (map=1,map=1,2)
#controllers.gpio.args=map=1,2
controllers.gpio.args=map=5 gpio=5,4,14,22,13,18,21,16,6,20,26,12,-1
@cheungbx Thanks for your description! Tried that with 4.4.13-v7and always receive a segmentation fault after this:
# rmmod mk_arcade_joystick_rpi
# insmod /lib/modules/4.4.13-v7/extra/mk_arcade_joystick_rpi.ko map=4 gpio=5,4,14,22,13,18,21,16,6,20,26,12,18
Have a Pi 3b.
Any ideas?
I actually took this tool from adafruit: https://github.com/adafruit/Adafruit-Retrogame/blob/master/README.md
With this you can easily remap your GPIOs to a virtual keyboard without resoldering it. I don't know any other way to do that. If I try to configure my controller without "retrogame" and with controllers.gpio.enabled I am not able to use every button.
I think this is the reason why retrogame does not work:
Beside keyboard as a gamepad is not supported in recalbox, most emulators won't work
But in the meantime I figured out, that I had to to the follwing. Now the buttons start, x and y work, but not the whole set. I also opened an issue on github as that place may be a bit more specific for a possible solution.
Anyway. Here is how the GPIOs are connected to my buttons:
A > 21
B > 16
Start > 13
Select > 18
Right > 22
Down > 05
Up > 04
Left > 14
X > 20
Y > 26
Here is also an example config from Adafruit Tools retrogame: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/adafruit/Adafruit-Retrogame/master/configs/retrogame.cfg.zero
If you could provide me any other "HowTo" that enables me to use all of my buttons in recalbox without rewiring it, I would really appreciate it.
By the way: In retropie everything works like a charm. But I don't want to use it! :)
Yes, I configured it in ES.
No, I didn't activate GPIO in recalbox.conf. If I set controllers.gpio.enabled to 1it does not work because the system then will double press a button (keyboard and Controller) so I am unable to configure the controller correct in ES.
Due to this french instruction it also says "deactivate GPIO" in recalbox.conf: https://github.com/recalbox/recalbox-os/wiki/Touches-du-clavier-via-GPIO-(FR) Or did I translate it wrong?
Hey all!
I have a GameBoy Zero (with Rpi3b) and buttons soldered to the GPIOs. I remapped them with adafruit retrogame to my keyboard.
Everything works very well in emulationstation! But after launching a game, doesn’t matter which one, I am not able to use the controller.
What am I doing wrong??
@zing said in WiFi on recalbox 4.1 is very unstable:
@alfajackal This is probably the case, the compatibility list warns that these dongles have this problem.
I know! Because I added that! 😉
So literally I warned myself! Unfortunately I don’t have a time machine... 😂
Okay, changed wifi.region from US to DE; it already was enabled.
But I think I figured out the issue: It must be my Anker keyboard and mouse! It seems that these two (!) dongles newly make some problems (as already mentioned, it was never a problem in previous versions). After disconnecting the dongles the wifi is stable.

@alfajackal Sorry, try all of the procedures that have been suggested in this topic:
https://forum.recalbox.com/topic/16393/wifi-is-not-working-on-pi-3b-or-pi-3bHave you tried on more than one different wi-fi (eg, a friend's house)?
Thanks for your reply and providing me this thread, I also read before.
I am able to connect to my WiFi and two other different WiFi’s. None of the mentioned things in the other post applies except of „wifi.region=DE“. The connection is still unstable and breaks for e.g. when transferring ROMs.
I will try setting the region to DE later.
@zing I have a RPi2 with the Latest image from https://archive.recalbox.com/
Unfortunately I did not find any proper solution when searching for WiFi in the forum. That is why I opened this thread.
Before I switched to the latest release I had an old 4.0.0 installed and everything ran very well with my Edimax Wifi dongle.
Which version do you have installed? The latest one has some issues with the scraping - it simply doesn't work. Wait for an update...
