JELOS 20240313

New Features​

• JELOS now has support for Kronos Libretro (Saturn) on AMD64, thanks to @sydarn!

Updates​

• Linux 6.1.68 (RK3326, RK3399, S922X)
• Update emulators, cores, and support packages.
• Update SyncThing and rclone.

Bug Fixes​

• Corrects an issue with integer overscale, thanks to @GlaZedBelmont.
• Fixes a bug preventing /storage/games-internal/roms and /storage/games-external/roms from being created automatically.
• Reverts AMD64 kernel to 6.6.4 to resolve missing battery issue.
• Reverts Powkiddy x55 GPU driver to correct an issue with GPU hangs while idle and in game.
• Fixes a bug causing EmulationStation to fail to restore brightness when using the video screensaver.
• Corrects a quirks bug causing missing audio on some devices.

Updates​

• Linux kernel 6.6.6 (AMD64).
• Update emulators, cores, emulation support packages, and system theme.
• Enable serial console output on RK3326, thanks to @royger!
• Switch default suspend mode to mem + s2idle on RK3566 devices.

Bug Fixes​

• Corrects an issue with merged storage preventing EmulationStation from enabling the menu options.
• Fixes an issue with system directory creation and switches the function from automatic to an option in System Settings that creates them on demand. This resolves a conflict condition that can hide games as duplicate directories may exist before the overlay is initialized. See previous release notes (20231212) as a fix is provided for affected users.

Note: For the 'CREATE GAME DIRECTORIES' to work correctly, users will need to create /storage/games-internal/roms or /storage/games-external/roms manually. This issue will be corrected in the next release.

New Features​

• Adds support for changing the merged storage target between the internal and external card.
  • Since JELOS creates the games directory structure it is possible that the overlay will hide games if you switch targets as it will consider them removed. Delete the empty directories and reboot to resolve.
    • Ex: find /storage/games-internal -type d -empty -delete && find /storage/games-external -type d -empty -delete && reboot
  • Merged storage can now be disabled persistently.
  • A new directory structure is required to enable switching:
    • /storage/games-internal/roms
    • /storage/games-external/roms
    • The target /storage/roms has not changed.
    • Games will be migrated automatically when possible.
    • If game directories are not created correctly, ssh into the device and run systemd-tmpfiles --create /usr/config/system-dirs.conf.
• Lowers RK3566 device clocks when put to sleep.
• Adds ATSC acceleration and CPU accuracy options to Yuzu.
• Adds TWB64 - Pack 3, thanks to @GlaZedBelmont!

Updates​

• Update Mali Bifrost and Vulkan to r46 (S922X).
• JELOS now uses Xwayland and has deprecated xorg-server.

New Features​

• The JELOS team is happy to announce support for merged storage! This change merges your internal or tf1 microsd storage with your external microsd to allow both devices to be used as game storage!
  • Requires the microsd card to be formatted as ext4, the feature is automatically disabled when ExFAT and FAT are used as those filesystems are not compatible.
  • We now have a new directory structure for games:
    • Internal Storage (or tf1): /storage/games-internal
    • External MicroSD (or tf2): /storage/games-external
    • Combined Path: /storage/roms
  • Games and data copied to /storage/roms will be saved to /storage/games-internal.
  • Samba has been updated to present both volumes for network access.
  • EmulationStation now has an eject option under System Settings -> Hardware /Storage that is available when merged storage is active.
  • When a compatible microsd is inserted, JELOS will automatically add it to the overlay if merged storage is active, making the content available to ES after a gamelist update or an ES restart.
  • The udevil service will no longer mount microsd cards to /run/media, howev...

New Features​

• Improved support for AMD's p-state driver for improved battery life across supported devices.
• Initial support for USB gadget mode, thanks to @citral23!

Updates​

• Update emulators and cores.

Bug Fixes​

• Revert Retroarch version to correct issue with Retroachievement related crashes.
• Revert battery drain when charged while off fix, as it has led to quite a bit of instability.
• Revert enable uart2 on Powkiddy x55 as it broke sleep.

Updates​

• Linux kernel 6.1.63 for RK3326, RK3399, and S922X.
• Linux kernel 6.6.2 for AMD64.
• Updates emulators, cores, emulation support packages, and theme.
• Games installed via Portmaster now default to performance mode.

Bug Fixes​

• Corrects an issue preventing EmulationStation from starting on SBCs.
• Fixes a bug preventing 3DS emulation from executing on some Weston devices.
• Adds a missing SDL joystick mapping for RK3566 devices.
• Fixes an issue on RK3566 devices causing battery drain when charging the device while it is powered off.
  • Correction requires a modification in how the device boots. When you connect a charger and the power is off, the device will now power on. This is expected behavior and not a bug.
  • As the method of booting has changed, it is possible that battery reporting could be inaccurate and require a battery reset. To reset, disconnect the battery from the mainboard for 10 seconds.
  • DO NOT ATTEMPT TO DRAIN THE BATTERY TO RESET, this will cause the charge controller to become even more inaccurate.
  • Big thanks to Recalbox for developing the feature.

New Features​

• CEMU now supports enabling online mode for the system or per game.
  • Note: Online mode requires owning a Wii-U and configuring CEMU for online play manually.

Bug Fixes​

• Corrects missing kill shortcut for PortMaster.
• AetherSX2 now starts correctly on supported ARM devices.
• Enables performance mode by default for GBA and PSX on RK3326 devices.
