#ALAUNCH EMULATION STATINO FROM RETRO PIE TERMINAL HOW TO#
Now, I do not know how to attach this process to a tty. IOError: No such device or address: '/dev/tty' opt/retropie/supplementary/runcommand/runcommand.sh: line 696: /dev/tty: No such device or addressįile "/opt/retropie/supplementary/runcommand/joy2key.py", line 43, in opt/retropie/supplementary/runcommand/runcommand.sh: line 667: /dev/tty: No such device or address Errors will be logged to /tmp/runcommand.log Press a key (or joypad button 0) to configure launch options for emulator/port (lr-pcsx-rearmed). When I try to enter a game in psx in emulationstation I get the following output in output.log: TERM environment variable not set. I added the following line to crontab: bash /home/pi/emulation.sh > /home/pi/output.log 2>&1 It does indeed seem to have something to do with not being attached to a TTY. But any work-around would also be appreciated. Please note that this is the way I intent to start emulationstation. Use add-on “Advanced Launcher” within Kodi to start emulationstation: Black screen for few seconds, then returns to home menu. Use Crontab to start a script that sleeps for 60 seconds and then starts emulationstation: Black screen for few seconds, then returns to home menu. Use Crontab to start a script to start emulationstation: Black screen for few seconds, then returns to home menu. Use Crontab to start emulationstation at boot: Black screen for few seconds, then returns to home menu.

Start emulationstation through SSH from a script using either bash or sh: Seems to work fine now, not sure if this was the case before. Start emulationstation through SSH from my PC: Works fine. This is the only way I’ve seen a logfile being created.

Over the next couple of sections, you will prepare your Pi for EmulationStation then install the software by using the RetroPie setup script. Please note that EmulationStation doesn’t come with any emulators, so you need to set those up yourself. An empty runcommand.log is created at /tmp/. Using EmulationStation on your Raspberry Pi you can start building your own alternative to RetroPie. Start emulationstation locally from the commandline: Works fine. I’ve tried out a few more ways to start emulationstation. I have absolutely no clue what could possibly go wrong at this point. USB devices connected: 2TB external harddisk, 2 usb playstation controllers Retropie version used: I suppose it’s version 3.0 since I’ve downloaded and ran the script just 2 days ago. A script called emulation.sh with the following content: #!bin/sh I’ve made a very simple example in which it fails. The screen will just go black for a few seconds and return to the emulator menu. However, when I start it through a homemade script the games from the psx emulator (and likely also all other emulators) won’t load. Whenever I start emulation station directly from the command line (through SSH on my pc) everything works fine: I’m experiencing an odd issue with psx/emulationstation.
