@urherenow did you make sure that the Lakka MAC address was the same as HOS MAC address ? It wouldn't surprise me if it weren't the same, seeing how Wi-Fi is broken-ish right now

Sorry if it's a dumb question but how do you enable FPS display on this and also what is the most optimal clock speed to use?

I tried Windwaker and RE4 earlier but they were a bit sluggish.

That would be easier to answer if anything at all in Lakka would tell you your MAC, but let me see...

Lakka connection says: 00-90-4c-1a-a0-01

Well, there you go. That is NOT the MAC address reported by horizon. The Horizon MAC starts with 98:B6:E9...

Would someone else please try and see if your Lakka connection reports the same MAC as the one above (00:90:4C...)?

If you don't know how, open cmd on your laptop or PC on the same network, ping your switch's IP (while connected in Lakka) then "arp -A"

Is it possible to calibrate the joysticks? I've tried playing Mario 64 but the left stick in a neutral state registers as slightly tilted up. It doesn't happen in the regular os.

@natinusala Any news on proper power modes? Is this usable in a portable capacity yet? I got banned from Twitter so I haven't been able to get in touch with ya as of late, hop on IRC if you get the chance!

I don't have Lakka on a SD card ATM but I have the same MAC address (00:90:4C...) using OP's Painless Linux which has been patched with the Lakka updates (courtesy of DarkOrb).

so the question becomes... why is a fake MAC address baked into Linux disros for Switch, and how do we fix it? Perhaps that's the wifi problem to begin with (not working without a reboot)?

@natinusala

EDIT: also... since EVERYONE is reporting the same MAC adress, how is this not causing all sorts of issues with netplay and the like?

Hi natinusala:

When do you implement a sleep funktion in lakka? At this time lakka is useless for me. Thanks for your work.

This is not the wifi problem to begin with. The wifi reboot issue is being worked on and will hopefully be fixed on the next release.

As for the MAC address, I think it has to do with a misconfiguration. It's not supposed to be a constant MAC for everyone. I'll look into it.

EDIT: also... since EVERYONE is reporting the same MAC adress, how is this not causing all sorts of issues with netplay and the like?

I think it can create issues when using netplay on two Switches on the same local network. Since they share the same MAC address and public IP, the NAT will not work properly.

Can anyone help me, my joy cons aren't working when im booted into lakka.tv, i launched into the normal switch os and they work on there just fine.

EDIT : Awkward, booted into normal os again, checked my controllers and realised they just have no battery left, charging now and hopefully should would.

    Eventhough the New 3DS XL is more powerful, I still feel like the DS Lite was a more polished system. It's a real shame that it never got an XL variant keeping the GBA slot. You'd have to go on AliExpress and buy an ML shell to give a DS phat the unofficial "DS Lite" treatment, and that's the best we'll ever get I'm afraid.

    The phat model had amazingly loud speakers tho.

  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Jayro, I don't see whats so special about the DS ML, its just a DS lite in a phat shell. At least the phat model had louder speakers, whereas the lite has a much better screen.

  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    They probably said "Hey, why not we combine the two together and make a 'new' DS to sell".
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It's a DS Lite in a slightly bigger DS Lite shell.

    It's not a Nintendo / iQue official product, it's a 3rd party custom.

    @SylverReZ if you could find a v5 DS ML you would have the best of both worlds since the v5 units had the same backlight brightness levels as the DS Lite unlockable with flashme

    but that's a long shot

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    A woman with no arms and no legs was sitting on a beach. A man comes along and the woman says, "I've never been hugged before." So the man feels bad and hugs her. She says "Well i've also never been kissed before." So he gives her a kiss on the cheek. She says "Well I've also never been fucked before." So the man picks her up, and throws her in the ocean and says "Now you're fucked."

    Agreed, that why I try to buy all my games on disc, Xbox anyways. Switch games (which I pirate tbh) don't matter much, I stay offline 24/7 anyways.

  • cearp @ cearp:
    @BakerMan - you can still "own" digital media, arguably easier and better than physical since you can make copies and backups, as much as you like.

    The issue is DRM
  • cearp @ cearp:
    You can buy drm free games / music / ebooks, and if you keep backups of your data (like documents and family photos etc), then you shouldn't lose the game. but with a disk, your toddler could put it in the toaster and there goes your $60

    :rofl2:
  • cearp @ cearp:
    still, I agree physical media is nice to have. just pointing out the issue is drm
