    Well I give up on trying to compile QT for LE. I reinstalled everything on my build laptop, and the build still fails even with your repository, so I have no idea what is going on.

    Thanks for all the help!

    Edit: Well on my last try I finally got it, I had to dissable a bunch of modules I didn't need and now it compiles.

    Thanks for all the help!

    Found this ... but doesn't work. No echos at boot screen. Too noob for scripts...

    You would need to make sure that the IP 192.168.1.80 is assigned to something on your network.

    if you want to check if internet is up you should change this IP to 8.8.8.8 or something that you know is always up. if you are just worried about local network, then change it to your routers IP usually 192.168.1.254

    This is an uneducated guest, but if you are using Kszaq's build SDL is compiled without video support (as the error says)

    Code
    --disable-video-wayland 
    --enable-video-wayland-qt-touch 
    --disable-wayland-shared \
    --disable-video-mir
    --disable-video-cocoa \
    --disable-video-directfb
    --disable-directfb-shared \
    --disable-video-dummy \

    I am guessing if you recompile it using at least directfb video it MIGHT work.

    Where did you get the moonlight binary that works on amlogic? I could help you test.

    I found this, not sure how to fix, though: [RFC,2/2] qt5base: fix build issue on 32bits armv8 target - Patchwork. Maybe kszaq or GDPR-1 can help.

    I've been using that patch and it seems it gets further down the build but it still fails.

    The qt-everywhere package mentioned in post #8 builds for PROJECT=S085 ARCH=arm with kszaq release 8.0.1l.

    is it an exact clone of Kszaq's build? I've been trying with PROJECT=S905 and S805 both of them fail at the same spot.

    qt-everywhere 5.8.0 builds for S805, and should build for all other projects.

    Well it seems it is something on my side as I get the same error I got when I tried before :(

    I am building with Ubuntu 16.04 LTS 64-bit.

    Why do you need 5.8.0?

    I am also using Ubuntu but what I meant is it LE Arch64 or ARM? I can't seem to be able to compile qt-everywhere, not even 5.6.2, I use arch=arm

    The reason I want 5.8 is because I want to try a emulator frontend called pegasus, that needs 5.8

    Liking this. Reminds me of something I made for the original pi a few years ago.

    Now if they/we could just get moonlight working :/

    you mean this?

    It is way over my head, but I am sure it is possible. there is an android version so I am sure it can work with the S905, we just need someone with knowledge on the subject to be interested.


    I have a pro kii (s905 with dual tuner dvb-t2/s2) device,
    I wanted to ask if it would be possible to install only the part of Emulationstation + Lakka without downloading the whole system.
    Thanks in advance.

    sorry not for my build, but there is an addon called Bolts on! or something like that available in the freaktab forum that could work for you.

    Keyboard TAB key not working in ADVMAME

    I tried three different keyboard, How I can solve this? Any suggestions?
    Also Emulation Station, tell me that for mame roms I haven't set a platform, I don't know how to resolve this.
    Please help.

    can you post a screensot of the error ES gives you? as for the keyboard kuljaz awnser is the solution.


    Hi Niabi. Really compliment for your wonderful work!
    I have a question... I'm trying to use some n64 roms, but I'm not able to use well the controller (a SNES classic gamepad) with all of them. All keys works fine except the pad, so it's impossible to play, because the direction keys doesn't work. I tried to use a keyboard instead the controller, but with the same results... all keys works, but when I press the arrows keys I don't see anything effect on the game.
    With MAME and the SuperNintendo roms all works fine.
    Any suggestion? thanks a lot

    I am not sure if you can play N64 games with a SNES controller, it doesn't have enough buttons.

    To configure your controller you need to do it on RetroArch instead of ES (I really should change this) once you are in the N64 emulator, you can press F1 on your keyboard (maybe START+SELECT on the SNES pad) and go into settings, input, and bind all for player #1 and set up your keys to your needs.
