I know, but in this case is different, if I launch mame from bash the game start normally, the problem is with attract, I need to verify if the lastrun log is created as in windows.

Sent from the sixth floor

Windows
  • attract.exe - type is windows application
  • attract-console.exe - type is windows console (STDOUT visible)

Unix
Code: [Select]
// Output STDOUT to file
./attract --config /Users/keiljr/Projects/attractmode/attract/config > log.txt

// Append output STDOUT to file
./attract --config /Users/keiljr/Projects/attractmode/attract/config >> log.txt

// Output STDERR and STDOUT to file
./attract --config /Users/keiljr/Projects/attractmode/attract/config &> log.txt

// Append output STDERR and STDOUT to file
./attract --config /Users/keiljr/Projects/attractmode/attract/config &>> log.txt

// Output STDOUT to console and file
./attract --config /Users/keiljr/Projects/attractmode/attract/config >&1 | tee log.txt

// Output STDERR and STD STDOUT to console and file
./attract --config /Users/keiljr/Projects/attractmode/attract/config 2>&1 | tee log.txt

I am not sure if these unix commands work in windows. If anyone wants to try them and report back, that would be great. I’ll add a section on arcademvs and perhaps the attract wiki I have been working on.

Edit: I added a section to arcade mvs wiki on unix error logging. https://arcademvs.org/unix/error-logging/

Anyone know how to get the linux-headers package for the installed version of linux (4.20.5)?  I need to install a driver for my usb wifi adapter and can't compile due to missing kernel headers.

Alternately, I could recompile the kernel but can't find the current groovyarcade kernel patches anywhere.

Anyway, GroovyArcade + GroovyMame + AttractMode is fantastic.  Thanks all.

Arch linux is not really the kind of distribution that is looking over the shoulder to past versions ...

This version of groovyarcade will probably never get any update. You may have a look at my fork (which followr the rolling release philosophy or Arch and is already on kernel 5.5.x)

It actually updated fine. I simply edited /etc/pacman.conf to ignore  package linux and upgrading to latest arch went swimmingly.  With Yay installed I have been able to add pretty much any package needed.  Compiling the latest groovymame was trivial also.

It looks like I will just need to compile the kernel myself with the 15 khz patches to finally get the wifi working. 

I probably could have started with your fork but at this point as 99.99% of everything is working great and I don't look forward to reinstalling/fixing everything I think i'll just work on patching the kernel.

I did check your github repo https://github.com/substring/os but can't seem to find the kernel patches there to apply.  I presume you are using Doozer's patches https://github.com/D0023R/linux_kernel_15khz or something very similar?

Kernel patches are at doozer's repo, yes. I also make arch packages of the kernel, groovymame, attract etc ...

Any chance those separate packages could be made available other than on the full iso?  I can see the lists of all of them on the github page but not the packages.

Do you mean https://github.com/substring/packages/releases ?

Take care: since kernel 5.5, 15k kernel switches have changed. Check doozer's repo, it's all explained there.

Would anyone be able to help my create an error log from a fresh install of Groovyarcade?

I’m not familiar with Linux.

The installer does fine it seems but instead of booting in to GroovyArcade on reboot it boots in to the installer again.

Thanks.

Yes. I’m using the March 10 2019 version.

I’ve followed two tutorials, which were generally the same. I had windows 10 installed previously, but Windows kept trying to repair the drive on startup, so I removed everything on it and started over.

The behavior on startup is similar to if the boot device was inserted, except it skips the initial screen where you have to hit enter to use 15khz signal.

There is only one drive installed - the internal HDD.


There’s a possibility I’m not booting properly - does the installer create a partition in the hard drive where gasetup could boot first?

How could I check if that’s the case?

If you have a single drive, you must have removed all partitions on it first (can be done with the partitionning tool in the setup), and then you can install to this disk.

Otherwise, once at the menu, exit to shell and give me the output of lsblk

I’m not sure how to output to a text.

Exiting to shell typing that brings up this:



If I run gasetup from this shell it tells me I don’t have root privileges.

If I don’t exit to shell and go to 1. Start Front-End / Window Manager, I get this:





Let me know if you need me to clarify any of that text. And feel free to explain this to me like I’m 5.

Ok, the display server fails, let's debug :
- what are your PC specs ? Is it connected to ethernet ?
- can you upload /var/log/Xorg.0.log somewhere ? (Don't copy the text here). If you have network, i'll tell you how yo make this easier
- i need the output of lsmod and dmesg (dmesg will be quite long)

I can give you a 1-liner command to prepare all this in an archive if you wish, but you really need network access to your arcade rig.

It’s an old Lenovo i3 with a Radeon hd 5450 added in. I’m not too concerned with 3D games.

I’ve managed to get a powerline  Ethernet cord attached to it and I have access to another computer with Windows on the network.

So, here are a few steps
- GA : go to console, type ifconfig, and write down the ip address
- Windows : download winscp, connect oto the ip address found before, user/pass : arcade/arcade. You'll get a file browser, go to the top dir, then get /var/log/Xorg.0.log

Out of curiosity, may I suggest you try (no need to install it, it can work as a livecd) the iso found at https://github.com/substring/os/releases/tag/2020.03 (you can use rufus to burn the iso to a USB key), boot on the usb key and simply launch the frontend and tell me if you have the same problem ? This won't worrupt anything on your computer

Let me know if I did that right. I’ll try the second part tonight and update this post

Update:

Download the github file. After it talking to me for a minute or two I selected start front end and it started up. I picked a game and it’s working. It didn’t automatically go to the front end but it’s there.

So, looks like your xorg.conf is not configured, this should be done in the setup menu. Please note the ioso you're currently using is hardly maintained, that's why I've setup a fork that you've tested and reported success ;)

So would I just run the install process with the forked iso? Would that allow the computer to just start up on the front end?

I really appreciate the help by the way.

Yes sir !
Boot the DVD, install to a non NVMe disk, reboot, remove the CD, make sure your bios will boot to the groovyarcade HDD/SSD and voilà! You should then be able to drop roms through network shares

I seem to be having same or similar issues. I checked the primary boot path in the bios to run the USB key first then the hdd. The automatic boot path is HDD.

I installed everything from the forked iso. It won’t boot up correctly. An interesting note is that it will boot up automatically on the DisplayPort to an lcd, but not the desired DVI to crt.

I can still go through the setup with the voice and hit enter twice to enter attract mode where it works perfectly. It seems like it won’t save the video configuration after reboot.

Is there a way to go through the setup program and manually make sure it outputs to the dvi port?

do you at least reach the boot menu where you can choose your horizontal frequency ?

Once you install an validated the configuration (It's extremly important that you stay in front of the PC while it's talking to you, be cause you'll have to validate some screens), you can't swap connectors. GA is configured ot run on a monitor type with a specific connector.

Yeah I’ll run through my install process. Maybe I’m missing something

1.hit enter twice, asked to validate. I select 15 for Nanao. On an Astro city cab.
2. I go to video setup and choose horizontal and 4:3
3. Setup front end I choose attract mode
4. Go to HD installation. Choose Partition manager, yes to stop auto mount. I pick the 1TB drive.
5. I delete the previous install across the 3 partitions. Quit. Press yes to start Automount.
6. Go to Hard Drive Installation. Install to Disk: Yes. Setup Networking: no. Audio setup: No.
It says, You Must Set Up Video Monitor, so I choose the same one, Nanao MS9.
7. Setup xorg.config and switchres? Yes
8. System settings: no, Snaps: no. Do you want to auto partition empty drive: Yes. I choose the 1TB drive. Gives me a warning, I say yes.
9. Wait.
10. Do you want to reboot: yes.
11. Really?: yes
12. After splash screen computer reboots, I remove the thumb drive when there’s the garbled text of computer starting up.


Reboot brings up nothing. I believe I can hear a faint beep.

X finds no monitor.

Can you :
- cat /proc/cmdline
- tell me on which connector your nanao is plugged

There's a typo somewhere, it's trying to load "admgpu" instead of "amdgpu".

One more thing : can you run this snippet ?

Code: [Select]
for p in /sys/class/drm/card? ; do
  id=$(basename `readlink -f $p/device`)
  # now match with lspci
  name=$(lspci -mms $id | cut -d '"' -f4,6 --output-delimiter=" ")
  cardnum=$(basename $p)
  echo "$cardnum: $name"
  for p in /sys/class/drm/${cardnum}-*/status; do
    con=${p%/status}
    bus=$(ls -d "$con"/i2c-* 2>/dev/null)
    echo -n "${con#*/card?-}: $(cat $p)"
    [[ -n $bus ]] && echo -n " - Has i2c"
    edid_size=$(cat "$con"/edid | wc -c)
    [[ $edid_size > 0 ]] && echo -n " - Found an EDID"
    echo
  done
done

It will list GFX cards, their connectors, if an EDID is found,if a i2c bus is found with some data available, and most of all, if the connector sees a monitor attached to it

The DVI-I-1 connector is connected. That runs a vga converter to a jpac to the jamma harness on the cabinet.
The voice tells me that it can’t be natively detected and has to force an output. Is this because of the jpac possibly?

The cmdline is:
Code: [Select]

BOOT_IMAGE=/groovyarcade/boot/x86_64/vmlinuz-linux-15khz quiet rd.udev.log-priority=3 splash mitigations=off audit=0 video=640x480iS archisobasedir=groovyarcade archisolabel=GA_2020.03 initrd=/groovyarcade/boot/x86_64/initramfs-linux-15khz.img

Is there a way to run the second command through the WinScp?

The command you've run shows you're booting from the livecd, not your installed groovyarcade. Do you at least see something on your arcade monitor ?

It's easier to use putty to run that command, there is a standalone version that doesn't require installing. Once you've copied text, use the right button yo paste in putty.

Sorry about that. The only way I can see an image on the screen is with the boot disk. Starting up without it is a blank screen. The cmd file is
Code: [Select]
BOOT_IMAGE=../vmlinuz-linux-15khz root=/dev/disk/by-label/GA rw quiet rd.udev.log-priority=3 splash mitigations=off audit=0   initrd=../initramfs-linux-15khz.img

Running the putty command:
Code: [Select]
card0: Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. [AMD/ATI] Cedar [Radeon HD 5000/6000/7350/8350 Series]
DP-1: disconnected - Has i2c
DVI-I-1: disconnected

This is the same thing the voice tells me, then it forces the DVI connection. Again, it’s a DVI port to VGA converter to vga cable to a jpac. It’s the same hardware I run on an older groovymame computer I have in another cabinet.

my guess is that, when the voice is speaking and informs that DVI-I-1 will be turned on, you either miss hitting the ENTER key to validate the message, or it's not shown at all (which I don't believe).

So, anyway we can solve that ! As root, you must edit a boot configuration file:
- boot GA with your HDD
- Use Putty to login (you can't edit as root with winscp unless you change the root password which is unknown to me, but you can change it with sudo passwd root)
- then nano /boot/syslinux/syslinux.cfg
- At the line that starts with append, add at the end video=DVI-I-1:640x480iS (you can use video=320x240S if you prefer a progressive mode)
- CTRL+X to quit, say you want to save
- reboot

The screen detection should have detected your monitor if you pressed enter when the message popped on you Nanao. See screenshots and video here

I will try this.


But I do hit enter when it says it forces DVI. Then it asks to validate settings.


From there I select Nanao MS9. And it works fine until I reboot.

Once you've configured with the livecd, please upload /var/log/groovy.log

Anyway, with what I've told you to edit on your HDD, it should be fine after reboot

It still won’t boot. I’ve tried both resolution options. http://cloud.tapatalk.com/s/5e84957128a88/glog.txt

I can see the 640x480 at the top of the log.

I’ve only added that in and restarted. Should I maybe do a full reinstall, then add the line in?

I’m thinking the computer is cursed honestly.

I can check how you've edited the kernel parameters if you make a cat /proc/cmdline. And if it's not working, it's because there is a mistake, because it's (almost) the same as on the live boot.

Sadly I can't open the log. But installing won't solve the problem as I need to solve EDID bug first.

Edit:
Just read again your logs, please rather use video=DVI-I-1:640x480ieS or video=DVI-I-1:320x240eS ... It needs an additional e in the line because the screen is not natively detected by your GFX card.

It worked!

Adding the e in there did the trick!

Thanks for your time and patience. I can’t say I won’t have any more questions, but I doubt they’ll be as complicated as this one.
