Hi,
I have a Raspberry Pi 4 - 4GB running raspian.
I am setting up retropie (emulationstation) for gaming purposes. When I launch/load a rom I no longer get the launching screen and get the terminal command below (see screenshot). However the roms still play.
" /opt/retropie/supplementary/runcommand/runcommand.sh: line 941: feh: command not found "
The run command script can be seen here:
#!/usr/bin/env bash

I believe the problem is to do wiith terminal image viewer “feh”.
I have performed all the updates I can think of.
My aim is to have the runcommand system splash screens described in the link below.
The program feh is a light weight image viewer for X11. If it is not installed, you can install it by running
sudo apt-get install feh
If you still get the error, then make sure the PATH environment has the library containing feh in it.
This is just displaying a splash screen, and as you have seen, doesn’t affect the game you’re playing.

Hi Robin57159,
Thanks for the advice. I will try installing feh tonight.
What do you mean by:
“f you still get the error, then make sure the PATH environment has the library containing feh in it.”

Hey Edward,
I think Robin was referring to this command:
PATH=$PATH:/"entire path to feh"
I’m not super familiar with the feh library, but this post on how Unix searches for executables should help clear things up if there are any problems.
This post should also set you up to add the PATH permanently (after every restart/shutdown)
So it finally works. Thanks for the help. The line below works well:
sudo apt-get install feh
Cheers for the help
