Going back to menu

[pgimeno]

When I press F9 I can go to the Linux console. How do I go back to the menu? In previous versions I could do that with F12.

f12 still brings up the OSD, from there find the option to reboot

Thanks for your reply. I'm struggling to understand the issue. It was happening when I had both the PS3 and the PS4 controllers connected. If I pressed F12 from the Linux console, nothing happened, Linux was still there. As soon as I unplugged one of the joysticks, the menu showed up without even pressing F12 (as if the key was cached somehow). Now I can no longer reproduce the issue.

This seems like a recurring problem.

Does anyone know the method that MiSTer uses for returning to Linux when pressing F12? Is F12 like a Linux hotkey that activates a command? If so, what daemon is used, and what is the command? I notice triggerhappy is not installed. I tried sending SIGUSR1 to the MiSTer main, but it quitted. Is there even a command to bring back the menu, so that if F12 doesn't work at least I can enter it?

The Linux command executed for a "reboot" is:

Code: Select all

fpga /media/fat/menu.rbf

A "Cold reboot" uses the Linux command:

Code: Select all

reboot

Code: Select all

fpga /media/fat/menu.rbf

For some reason, that command causes what appears to be a full reboot of my system.
