installing on PI 2 and choosing arcade 6 button , after reboot PI input doesnt work #40

Had an arcade that used to use the old code that had the indiecity mame install. raspberry pi 2 using gpio pins with 6 buttons and a joystick wanted to update to retropie installed retropie from github on november 2016 raspian image w/ pixel desktop i installed Retrogame and configured for 6 button + joystick, after reboot keyboard/mouse wont work anymore and the networking (hardwired) no longer works.

Figuring it might be something i did wrong I tried with a default latest Retropie image this time and it did that same thing after reboot when i pulled down the retrogame.sh and rebooted. I did it 2 more times to be sure its not anything else. and same results.

Tested against both Nov 2016 Raspbian and latest Retropie. Buttons, keyboard and network all continue to function.

Confirm that /boot/retropie.cfg corresponds to your actual button/stick wiring, using Broadcom GPIO pin numbers, and that these are not shared with any other GPIO-attached hardware.

i have 0 connections to any gpio pins, which pi are you testing on , im on a pi 2 with just a usb keyboard connected.

i use win32imager to put either retropie image or raspian , boot up and everything is fine. i run

cd curl -O https://raw.githubusercontent.com/adafruit/Raspberry-Pi-Installer-Scripts/master/retrogame.sh sudo bash retrogame.sh

and i choose 6 button and it asks me to reboot. once i reboot no network connection and no keyboard working.

Tested on v 1.1 and 1.2 Pi 2 hardware. USB keyboard, Ethernet and HDMI connected. Still can't reproduce. Anything else unique about the setup?

xillwillx commented 7 years ago

would the code work on a model B or would you have to change alot of code?
