I have a Wiikey but some games like Rygar for example only work with Gecko 1.07b/Gamma Loader.

Now I got all three installed Gecko Loader 1.07b, Gamma Loader and an earlier version of Gecko supposedly for GameCube games.

Do I really need all this, hell I think that maybe Gecko OS 1.07b and Gamma Loader are the exact same thing?
If I decide to delete them I just delete the channels like I normally do for WiiWare and VC games, right?

Unless you really play GC backups. Then again, you have a chip.

Straight NO. It's possible but then it will leave some memory behind. Uninstall it via WAD Manager

Second question already been covered in HSG.

So if say, a game has audio problems with WiiKey, especially now with 1.9s sicne that apparently has more problems on PAL systems, will loading the game from Gecko eliminate those problems?

I don't have any games with audio problems now, so that's why I'm asking otherwise I'd test it myself.

So wait, if Gamma and Gecko leave memory behind, should I also uninstall WiiWare and VC WADs using the WAD Manager or is it ok to delete those with the regular channel manager?

WiiWare and VC's leave tickets behind if you use the Wii's channel remover so it's recommended to use WAD manager to remove them.

    Hey, odd question, what is the life span of a samsung microsd in a raspi running raspi os and pihole?
  • K3N1 @ K3N1:
    Depends on use for some reason but I avoid any SD card that doesn't have a 2 year warranty
  • DinohScene @ DinohScene:
    Sounds fair, don't think I can be arsed sending a small microsd in for warranty but eh
  • K3N1 @ K3N1:
    I'd assume cards that run 24/7 with constant write transfers would fail quicker
