Does the SNES Mini run on Linux?
@godreborn
What I'm wondering is would it be possible to create a shortcut to power off the device from the controller. I found this:
https://github.com/CompCom/OptionsMenu
But its a bit bloated and I don't need all that and don't like the keypress menu. Just a title on the main screen where I can click it and Mini powers off. Sure I know the switch will still be up and need to be changed again but its just more convenient and would be a nice quality of life improvement.
Found a couple of comments that suggest it can be done:
You could make a fake game named shutdown. Then edit the .desktop file change exec=. To exec=bin/sh (name of your script)
Make a simple file/script and has one line of code
poweroff
using ftp move it to hakchi/rootfs/bin
I think that is the path but either way it need to be placed in the bin folder
This should power it off while still having the power switch in the on position....so at this point when remotely turn of the wifi recepticale u are basically unplugging it.
I haven't tested it but this should inturn power back on when the u turn the recepticla back on.
Madmonkey said "create a 'game' with /bin/gameover command line" Combined with the other reply, you might be able to make it work.
