Setting Up Playstation 3 Controller and Qanba Q4 RAF Arcade Stick on RetroPie

Although RetroPie support some of the hotkeys for joypads right out of the box, I decided to modify it to include the commonly used hotkeys. Also I found that the default joypad configuration for the Qanba maps the button incorrect.

A Successful Guide on Installing Adafruit 2.8" TFT Resistive Screen on Raspberry Pi Model B for RetroPie


While trying to connect my Raspberry Pi Model B (Version 1) to Adafruit 2.8 TFT capacitive screen (not the PiTFT), I'm having complication of the screen constantly showing white screen despite following the latest guide by Adafruit here on 'Running OpenGL-based Games & Emulators on Adafruit PiTFT Displays'. Perhaps that guide will work straight out of the box for PiTFT, but certainly not the 2.8' TFT that I'm having.

I've actually spent a whole night trying to source out the problems and solution and I'm glad that I did. So I've decided to write this tutorial in case you're having the same problem as I had.

Note: I'm connecting the Adafruit 2.8 TFT display to my Raspberry Pi Model B (Version 1). The steps should be similar in the second revision.

This guide is made possible thanks to various contribution authors mentioned in the Reference section at the end of this article.
