Pulse error - updated to 2.3
« on: January 05, 2018, 08:23:51 PM »
Linux/AM noob here.

After many attempts, have been able to get all updates installed (Raspbian/RetroPie/AM).

I am using an HDMI to DVI cable for my monitor, and therefore not using the audio through HDMI.

I won't use audio through HDMI as this is a Raspberry Pi 3 in a mini-barcade from gameroomsolutions.com, and therefore won't be used on any other display.

(Frick - didn't know attaching a cropped image of the error would look like that garbage...)
I have audio going through the 3.5 mm out and into a small amplifier and out 2 4" speakers.

I keep seeing the pulse error and want to know what my options are.
Do I need pulse?
  if no, can it be uninstalled easily without negative effects?
    if negative effects, can I disable it/comment out somewhere in a config so it won't attempt to load (and therefore not error)?

I have already gone into the setup to force 3.5mm out instead of auto.

TIA,
PixelFreak

PS - If you can figure out why the other errors related to not being able to open certain .png files, I am all ears too.  ;D
