https:\/\/arpicade.com\/forums\/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=1037<\/a>. Basically that says to look at the Attract-Mode config files in \/home\/pi\/.attract\/. By doing this, you can just have the one menu named “All Games”.<\/p>\nSSH Access<\/h4>\n
Connect the RPi to your network via an Ethernet connection.<\/p>\n
You should then be able to reach the ARpiCADE by making an SSH connection (Port 22) to “raspberrypi.local”. Login credentials are “pi” and “raspberry”.<\/p>\n
After you enter the login credentials, you won’t get a prompt at first. Type “ctrl-c” once, to get a prompt.<\/p>\n
If you didn’t get a connection at all (ie you don’t get to the login screen), it might be that you need to add a blank file in the “boot” partition called “ssh” (you can do this by plugging the SD card into another computer).<\/p>\n
Once you have SSH access, the “ifconfig” command will show you the IP address of the RPi on both the Ethernet and WiFi connections.<\/p>\n
To set the WiFi details, enter “sudo raspi-config”. Then select options 2 (Network Options) and then N2 (Wi-Fi). Once you reboot, ifconfig should show that you have a connection on the WLAN interface.<\/p>\n
If you want to add a second WiFi access point, manually edit by “sudo nano \/etc\/wpa_supplicant\/wpa_supplicant.conf” and add another “network” entry.<\/p>\n
You should now be able to unplug the Ethernet cable and re-boot the RPi. When the RPi boots up again, it should be connected via WiFI and you should be able to SSH into the RPI at “raspberrypi.local”.<\/p>\n
Once logged in, you can check which access point you are connected to by using the “iwgetid” command. The “iwconfig” command will show additional information, such as signal level etc.<\/p>\n
Once this is all working, from a Windows machine you can use “winscp” or “filezilla” to easily access the file system on the RPi, including to copy ROMs on to the SD card.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
I first started experimenting with ARpiCADE in November 2022. These notes relate to version 3.X (for RPi 3). The standard 3.X distribution does NOT have ssh enabled. You need to add a blank file called ssh to the BOOT partition to enable this. Here are some random notes, for future use: Removing lists of console ..<\/p>\n
