Please remove wolfram-enginge and related packages
I've already solved the problem btw... it just made me think about whether any emulators actually use that package.

PiPlay console design for 3dPrinter, any suggestions?
I am attempting something similar. I have 3d printed two handheld arcade controllers and I need to make a case for the Pi to fit in. It just needs to sit under the TV. If I come up with a cool design, I'll share it.

Neither AdvMAME or MAME4ALL appears on the menu
If I cd ~/pimame/emulators/mame4all-pi/ ./mame Then mame4all runs... so the problem seems to be the menu not showing the mame4all icon?

errno 21? can't play games...help please
Wow... a missing directory caused the entire system to fail? Seems like the system should just create an empty dir by itself or skip out of the loop? Could a simple if...else statement have prevented this? Thanks mholgatem, you've saved my but…

Beta 7 is up
Looking forward to trying the updated version! As to the near future, any hope of getting to configure the mame4all controls in a plain text document instead of via the tab menu?

Cannot configure mame4all games via tab
When I run retrogame I get inputs on all buttons and joysticks, but even the same buttons that work inside games do not respond once I've pressed tab am inside the menu? I haven't heard of evtest before, does it do the same as retrogame?

MAME4ALL controls issue
Nice of you to share the solution to the problem :)

New Update?
Does this controller setup only have to do with xbox controllers or also traditional joystick/button configuration? I'm having big difficulties with the mame4all controls. When I hit tab and attempt to configure a game, it doesn't respond…

Getting mame4all to read joystick and buttons?
STUPID mistake on my behalf as ALWAYS. I need the init script for retrogame. I thought retrogame was running correctly, but NOOOOO. How do I configure ./retrogame & to happen on startup?

Getting mame4all to read joystick and buttons?
I have attempted to do that via the Tab key. I can see why this needs to be configured from inside MAME4ALL, the cfg files in /home/pi/pimame/emulators/mame4all-pi/cfg/ are all binary. When I am in the Tab menu, clicking the 'Input (general)&#…

Joystick and Buttons
I just bought two Seimitsu LS-32-02 joysticks and they're pretty decent at an affordable price. The buttons were the cheapest I could find (I'm linking to a danish site) http://www.arcadeshoppen.dk/knapper/standard-arcade-knapper/arcade-kn…

No ROMs working
changing the path in mame.cfg: rompath=/home/pi/pimame/roms/mame4all solved my problems.

I'm going to come clean... we need a port of the newest mame version. 0.37b5 is not doing it.

I have the same problem... even with games that appear on this list https://code.google.com/p/imame4all/wiki/GameList of roms, that should be working.

0.8b5 boot to desktop issue
I had to reformat the card. On a side note, I think the LeftCtrl+Q "quit to terminal" shortcut should be mentioned in the Quick Start Guide http://pimame.org/quickstart.html ? Took me a long time to find that answer on Google.
