Cheers!
Hello, thanks for the easy install process. Worked like a charm.
Quick question, most likely unrelated to this, but a quick google search did not really help me out.
Ever since i installed RetroPie, when i shutdown my Pi i get a message:
[FAILED] Failed to start Store Sound Card State.
See āsystemctl status alsa-store.serviceā for details
When i type the command line in a shell i get the following msg:
* alsa-store.service - Store Sound Card State
_ Loaded: loaded (/lib/systemd/system/alsa-store.service; static)_
_ Active: inactive (dead)_
Not a big deal as the pi shutsdown properly.
Any ideas? I donāt recall any issues when installing RetroPieā¦
Thanks
Hi,
I followed the guide to install Retrosmc. Everything was going fine and then I checked Putty and it said that it was forced to close due to an error (sorry it flashed up to quickly for me to notice it).
The last thing it says on Putty is:
Preparing to unpack ā¦/libsamplerate0-dev_0.1.8-8_armhf.deb ā¦
Unpacking libsamplerate0-dev:armhf (0.1.8-8) ā¦
The Putty Window status is Inactive.
Should I try and uninstall and reinstallā¦ Conscious not to make things worseā¦

Just do the installation again. No need to uninstall anything.
Thank You for the quick response!
Installed everything, seems ok.
After a reboot I located the Launcher Addon but when I click on āRunā from within Kodi it just displays a blank screen (like it does when itās waiting for an addon to load itās contents). Nothing loads whatsoeverā¦
When I press back on my remote control it disconnects Anynet (CEC)ā¦ Then Kodi restarts itselfā¦
Try to run it with
cd /home/osmc/RetroPie/scripts
./retropie.sh
from ssh.
Are there any errors?
I use a cset command to bring up the volume for the alsa device at launch.
Nothing to worry about.
This is what I got back when typing the commands aboveā¦

What is the contents of your retrosmc-config.cfg file in the same directory?
Whilst trying to solve this myself I did add something to the retrosmc-config.cfg file. I since removed this 
I did what you asked again (with the contents of retrosmc-config.cfg empty) and this is the printout from SSH.
osmc@osmc:~/RetroPie/scripts$ ./retropie.sh
osmc@osmc:~/RetroPie/scripts$
It just sticks there for a while!
Strange. Can you run emulationstation via ssh?
sudo service mediacenter stop
Then run
emulationstation
Also the es logfile might be helpful.
Hi,
Thanks for taking the time to write back to me and help solve the problems. To be honest Iām thinking of just installing RetroPie on a separate SD card and keep OSMC and RetroPie in the native environments. As you can tell I am new to OSMC / RetroPie / Linux so it may be easier for me to keep them separate. I really appreciate your input!
Kind Regards,
I have the same problem under debian jessie, the problem come from the retropie-setup script not able to install these packages:
Could not install package(s): libboost-locale-dev libboost-system-dev libboost-filesystem-dev libboost-date-time-dev libfreeimage-dev libeigen3-dev.
Because of the unmet dependencies, emulationstation will not launch so I have a black screen when launching the addon launcher, and then comes back to OSMC.
Hmmm. This is new then.
Could you gile a bug report at their github please?
First. Picked up Inateck Bluetooth 4.0 adaptor and 2 8bitdo nes30 pro controllers (my Xbox controller is too big for my little girls handsā¦ So I am assuming a ps3 would also not work. )ā¦ But when I launch retrosmc it says no controllers configured. Any advice or links for these controller setup? Thanks!
.
Second. Can I link a SMB share on my NAS for games files?
Please search the forum. There is some information on how to get it working I think.
Little luck. This gives some info, but not completely promisingā¦ RetroPie 3.5 and the 8Bitdo NES30 Pro | Delightly Linux
This looks a little betterā¦
