Does any coding need to be changed when adding the LED? or is adding it as specified in the image enough.

Great tutorial man. I think you should mention that your script for some reason is updated and there is an extra step. I'm referring to the "1. sudo apt-get install update" If anyone is playing his video side by side as you are doing this. You'll need to start at 2. of his scrip while he starts at 1. and then just follow exactly how he goes from there. Also it's worth mentioning that you have the command to reboot the RPi at 13. before you the "sudo python /home/pi/scripts/shutdown.py &" command. At this point you should skip 13. (reboot) apply said command 14. and then run the reboot command (sudo reboot). Best of luck to everyone out there. Also not that if you have a faulty switch ( i did ) you'll see the retropie splash screen, but then the it will shut down again. Just unplug your switch, get a new one and try again.

I realize this is now a year old but I'm using it now so I thought I'd add this. You should still do step 1, its just he got the command wrong. Should be sudo apt-get update This ensures you get the latest versions of the software you are about to install and should be done before installing software on linux.

@Murlockingqc 6 жыл бұрын

are you saying Step 14 should go before Step 13? and what is the correct command in the first step? "sudo apt-get update" ?

Cool deal. Got it working! Thanks! As a side note, the reason you can't use CTRL-X is probably because you haven't set up your keyboard as a US keyboard in raspi-config. Run sudo raspi-config and go into Internationalisation options and change the keyboard layout. Select something like a generic 101 key PC keyboard and then on the next screen if it doesn't have English (US) before your options, pick Other and go down to English (US) then go to the top and select English (US). This should fix all your key mapping problems. (Note that you do have to have a keyboard attached to the Pi for the keyboard layout tool to work)
