Is the Pi4 Version 32 or 64Bit ?


I cannot get it to work on my Pi 400, I even did a new install of SDL 2.0.14 from scratch ....

error while loading shared libraries: libSDL2-2.0.so.0: wrong ELF class: ELFCLASS64

Ok, just wanted to test on Raspbian OS 32 Bit .... no output here, no error message, nothing ....


Just quits back to Terminal ...

On my Pi4 B, I use normal Raspberry Pi OS (32-bit) with last updates and SDL 2.0.13 by default (if I remember well).
Have you dezipped all the file in the same directory (cpcemu.ini file, IMG, ROM, WAVE, directories and CPCEPower_SDL_Pi4 executable) ?

You should have a nice welcome msg if you execute it from shell by ./CPCEPower_SDL_Pi4...

Same on PI400, no need of SDL 2.0.14 ... last approved 2.0.13 should work...

Ok, still no joy ... tried a fresh Raspbian OS 32Bit install ... extracted all into "cpc"


Getting the same as before :

Code Select Expand



pi@raspberrypi:~ $ cd cpc
pi@raspberrypi:~/cpc $ ./CPCEPower_SDL_Pi4
pi@raspberrypi:~/cpc $



It just exits back to the pi prompt .....

Strange... I'm sorry about that... I don't know what is wrong exactly... Can anyone try the Pi Version too and report result here ?

There is a prompt just at the beginning after SDL2 init...

What version of SDL2 have you installed ? -:> cf https://www.raspberrypi.org/forums/viewtopic.php?t=58180
Note : you only need SDL2 library, no other support library.

can you type sdl2-config --version and tell my which version is reported ?

I tried various versions, in the moment it's 2.0.14 if I do a SDL2-CONFIG --VERSION ....

[megachur]

Have you get it with

sudo apt install libsdl2-2.0-0

or have you compiled it ?

I suggest to remove yours and get the official to see what appends !

[SkulleateR]

Ok, here we go, did a fresh Raspbian install ....

Code Select Expand


sudo apt install libsdl2-2.0-0



gets me to : ./CPCEPower_SDL_Pi4: symbol lookup error: ./CPCEPower_SDL_Pi4: undefined symbol: SDL_RWseek

also, I get no SDL2 Version ....

Next try :

Code Select Expand


sudo apt-get install libsdl2-dev

gets me to the same error as above, but with "sdl2-config --version" I get 2.0.9

now the only way to get higher is compiling it from http://libsdl.org/download-2.0.php

Then I get Version 2.0.14 but I cannot start the emu ..... I'm a bit lost here ....

[megachur]

Ok, sorry about that, the previous CPCEPower_Pi4 was compiled with include and lib of SDL_2.0.13 version on my dev configuration !!!

There is a new compiled version for SDL_2.0.14 here !


Thanks a lot for the reporting.


To compile SDL2 on Rasbian OS : (replace 14 -> 13 for use the executable in the previous zip file ;-))

Code Select Expand



wget -c https://www.libsdl.org/release/SDL2-2.0.14.tar.gz
tar zxf ./SDL2-2.0.14.tar.gz
cd SDL2-2.0.14
mkdir build && cd build && dir
../configure --host=arm-raspberry-linux-gnueabihf --prefix=$PWD/rpi-sdl2-installed --disable-pulseaudio --disable-esd --disable-video-wayland
make
sudo make install
cd rpi-sdl2-installed/
sudo cp -r * /usr/local/
cd ../../..


Now you should have this msg :

INFO: CPCEPower v2105 (c) 2016-2021 by Megachur running on Linux with 3827 MB using SDL v2.0.14 on a multithread system. Compiled by GNU GCC v8.3.0


[megachur]

Also, I've tried the previous executable and it work well with SDL2_2_0_14...


So, check also that you have last libpng and libzlib installed :

Code Select Expand

sudo apt install libpng16-16
sudo apt install zlib1g


It can be also a case of non executing the program !

Thanks, I will try this evening when getting home

Btw. any chance to compile it for ARM64 ??

[SkulleateR]

Just switched to new executable and it works instantly on 32Bit , thx
