OK let's go : You are going to compile a new kerlent on your pi : We are not going to use crosscompilation here, so it will take between 15 and 17 hours to compile the kernel on the pi. Step 1 : update and Install tools for compilation sud…

You can try my compiled kernel and the modules from raspicade : download http://www.morere.eu/storage/kernel-3.10.36-xinmo.tar.gz Put this archive in the home of pi on the raspi. For example from my laptop to the pi : [yann@archery linux]$ scp ke…

Xin-Mo Dual Controller not working
Ok, that's crazy... my linux kernel on raspicade is 3.10.34 or 3.10.36+ and the patch is working. It's a previous version see http://elinux.org/RPi_Kernel_Compilation : since Jan '14 the current is rpi-3.10.y I think you did some t…

Perhaps the kernel is too recent... and the patch doesn't apply anymore. Which kernel version in 0.8.3?

If you're french.... try raspicade.... a french arcade distribution https://sourceforge.net/projects/raspicade/ french manual https://sourceforge.net/p/raspicade/wiki/HowTo/ and french support http://www.gamoover.net/Forums/index.php?topic=294…

Thanks you!
Perhaps it comes from the SD card. Did you try to remake it. Are all the partitions visible with linux. I often had this problem. The sd connector of the raspberry pi is not very good.

Bartop ESC button issues
@george_mcknz for xin-mo it works like a charm with one player... problems appears with 2 players only! To escape everything can be done from the encoder and emulator configuration. See https://sourceforge.net/p/raspicade/wiki/HowTo/ Why use the G…

Fire Burn Alpha (FBA) Xin-Mo adapter
Yes... thanks to the patch described here https://github.com/petrockblog/RetroPie-Setup/wiki/Troubles-with-the-Xin-Mo-Controller. I implemented it to raspicade, and have a look to that video... 1944 with final burn alpha with 2 players ;) https://s…

Xin-Mo Compatible Emulators (PiSNES/MAME4ALL/PiFBA)
I think you'll need to recompiled them. There are surely update version of libraries in the last piplay. If you get black screen, try to compile the debug version. If it works, strip it.

Mame4all vs 2nd player
Yes it's true, i've patched mame4all-pi to support all buttons with xinmo 2 players (see https://sourceforge.net/p/raspicade/wiki/Release Notes/ for proof). I've done it for my raspicade distribution https://sourceforge.net/projects/r…

First you need to install "build essentials", git to get sources, and make: sudo apt-get install build-essential automake make autoconf git git-core next the dev package : here is dev packages installed on my "devel" rapbian …

Don't be afraid that's easy (but it takes time, because pi is slow). Just need to install the dev packages of the used libs and just type : make and that's it!

Pimame is perhaps not based on the same linux version (and libs version). This could explain the segfault. In this case you'll need to git clone and build it on your distribution. And same for pisnes I'm afraid.

@ lsalcedo : this fix is already done and integrated in my raspicade project ;-). I just followed https://github.com/petrockblog/RetroPie-Setup/wiki/Troubles-with-the-Xin-Mo-Controller and it worked. I did the same with mame4all-pi to allow the 22 …

@ adamrobots : I compiled them on moebius linux (a minimal raspian without X etc.) perhaps it comes from the linked libs. I'm not using pimame, sorry.

Ok, you can download my binaries ( raspian based compiled). Make a backup of the original ones and extract the zip file. That's all

Glad to hear that someone is happy with my poor code modification ;-). This patch is very rough!!! Only usable with Xin-Mo module, so I'm not sur that it should be integrated as is! Perhaps we should place a #define XINMO Variable somewhere, …
