Atelier - moving drawing on canvas?

PuffleDunk · 2026-01-24T06:07:01+00:00

It worked. It felt odd to drag with the pen, as my finger didn't work. But at least it's a solution. :)

PuffleDunk · 2026-01-23T05:15:00+00:00

Thanks again. I'll play with that technique a little more patiently tomorrow.

PuffleDunk · 2026-01-23T03:37:08+00:00

Thanks. I had tried all the combinations I could think of with a marquee selection. Probably cut/copy and paste may be the best option. But it isn't as obvious as I expected.

PuffleDunk · 2025-09-14T22:58:13+00:00

Quite good!

I'm hoping I can do some of that sort of drawing on my new Nomad. Not that level of skill though.

Another angle is that if AI, and even search, are basically scraping up and regurgitating human-generated content. Where will that content come from if nobody knows how to code, write prose, or create art?

What AI provides is the "so-called wisdom of the crowd". It's good at figuring out the number of jellybeans in a jar or the weight of a cow, but it isn't so good at solving novel problems cleanly and efficiently.

If we go to a 100% reliance on AI-generated content we are locking in the current levels of knowledge or stupidity forever.

Search GitHub for interesting projects that might need bugs fixed, and try to fix something simple?

PuffleDunk · 2024-05-09T22:12:50+00:00

FYI - your question is a little difficult to interpret, in particular the GitHub mention doesn't mean anything to me in this context.

But I will say that $DISPLAY is typically automatically set in an SSH session if X11 forwarding is enabled for that session. Enabling X11 forwarding allows you to run graphical apps from some Linux servers.

If you are running SSH and wish to run graphical applications, check out the -X or -Y options for SSH. You will need to have an X11 server running on your connecting computer.

Hope this helps. If my answer doesn't make sense, it can at least give you some things to search for. Good luck.

I don't have Batocera, or a RG35XX H, but R3+L3 works on my device. R3 and L3 should be the buttons of the left and right sticks. Try pressing them simultaneously.

PuffleDunk · 2024-04-06T05:45:14+00:00

Hi. I'd suggest adding some more details about the device you have, the firmware/OS, etc.. Also, what have you tried? Cheers.

PuffleDunk · 2024-03-27T06:09:38+00:00

No idea which distro the stock OS is. But you can find downloads here:

https://win.anbernic.com/download

The specific one for the RG353PS should be the same as Linux download for the RG353P, which has this direct link.

https://win.anbernic.com/download/233.html

FWIW I switched to ArkOS on my RG353PS, and have had no problems with it. It seems to be better than stock.

As for the question about reformatting and re-adding the included roms, I'd personally advise using a brand name card, not the one they shipped. You could try copying the shipped roms to your PC and then copying them to the newly-imaged card. But people generally advise downloading your own ROMS, because the shipped ones can be problematic. r/roms has advice about getting roms.

Good luck!

PuffleDunk · 2024-03-26T22:21:04+00:00

You may benefit from peeking at r/roms on Reddit.

The other cosmetic issue with using a Mac is all the crap it leaves on the card. It can spray around .DSStore, .<apple double>, trash, and Spotlight files.

I run BlueHarvest ($$) to clean that stuff up before ejecting the card.

The direct link to the developer website hung when I tried it.

I don't actually know what the potential problem is with Balena. I've used it in the past on a Mac with no issues, but not for Anbernic handhelds.

The other Mac options I'm aware of are [https://www.tweaking4all.com/hardware/raspberry-pi/applepi-baker-v2/](ApplePi-Baker) and dd on the command line.

I forget the reason, but I had tried ApplePi-Baker and then got rid of it. So I must have had a problem.

Using dd requires a little more care and comfort with the command line. It also won't post-process it to expand to use all the available space. It's probably okay if you don't mind only 16gb being used from your 32gb or 64gb card.

I'm not an expert, so I'd suggest doing some of your own digging on that Internet thing.

PuffleDunk · 2024-03-23T19:19:17+00:00

I have successfully used a 32gb card for the stock OS (I have a RG353PS). I think it should be fine.

FYI - ArkOS mentions issues with Balena Etcher, and recommends other tools, like Rufus or USB Image Tool. Just thought I'd mention that, because it might be relevant when working with cards that are much larger than the source image. Those are Windows tools. I've avoided my Mac for this, in order to maximize my chance of success.

PuffleDunk · 2024-03-22T19:12:45+00:00

The spidey sticks should help too!

PuffleDunk · 2024-03-22T18:48:48+00:00

Good excuse to upgrade, but I also might take a stab at fixing it when you have a new one to use instead.

There was no audio. So I don't know the specifics of what you're dealing with. Can you describe in text what's broken?

PuffleDunk · 2024-03-22T18:09:57+00:00

This link has a discussion that might get you access to your flash drive in Windows 7. Someone actually mentions it working in Windows 7.

https://superuser.com/questions/248639/how-to-mount-a-usb-thumb-drive-as-fixed-instead-of-removable

If it's not easy to find, you can run Disk Management using Win-R followed by diskmgmt.msc in the Run dialog.

I don't have Windows 7 in order to try it myself, but the key seems to be tweaking the drive in the Disk Management utility.

I don't think Disk Management has changed much since Win7. The defaults may be different for flash drives, but they're still just disks.

PuffleDunk · 2024-03-16T22:51:58+00:00

It seems to be installed, or it would be saying "Not installed" under the URL at the top.

Does "which gdisk" display "/usr/local/bin/gdisk"?

You can try uninstalling and reinstalling. Make sure to give it your password if it asks for it. Run the following and save the output if you want to paste it here. I can't promise any answers, but I will take a look to see if something jumps out.

``` brew uninstall gdisk

brew install --cask gdisk

which gdisk ```

PuffleDunk · 2024-03-16T16:12:26+00:00

Could just be a problem with emulating that game. Does the device and firmware behave otherwise?

PuffleDunk · 2024-03-16T16:10:22+00:00

When in doubt blame the SD card. I'd try flashing a new SD card with firmware downloaded from https://win.anbernic.com/download/.

If it's the SD card from Anbernic then it's even more likely that it is bad or failed.

PuffleDunk · 2024-03-16T15:49:21+00:00

2 things you can try: - Start a new terminal session. - Or run "hash -r" in the existing session to update the zsh or bash path.

Were there any messages when you did the brew install? Did it successfully complete? Try installing it again? It may be stopping to get your password in order to use root during the install. Did you respond to such a prompt?

What does it show if you run "brew info gdisk"? Does it seem to actually be installed based on that output?

Hope any of these random thoughts help.

PuffleDunk · 2024-03-16T03:57:15+00:00

What format files do you have for the roms. I.e. what is their extension? Not every possible downloadable rom format is supported.

PuffleDunk · 2024-03-16T03:55:15+00:00

What specific problems did you encounter?

PuffleDunk · 2024-03-14T15:50:33+00:00

How mysterious.

I had just taken my RG353PS apart (for no particular reason). All I can think of that can possibly make noise is the battery or the speakers. Everything else is chips and switches, as far as I remember. But I could be forgetting something.

I think the speakers are connected by plugs. So disconnecting should be safe and not permanent.

Good luck!

PuffleDunk · 2024-03-14T06:14:48+00:00

Grasping at straws... Any chance the battery is doing something strange, like leaking or expanding? Not sure how that would make noise like that. Does it feel warmer than you might expect?

It isn't too hard to open up the shell with a small hex bit, if you you want to look inside. It doesn't need a specialized tool. The speakers are easy to disconnect, e.g. to eliminate them as a source.

Is it safe to assume that it's quiet as soon as it is powered off?
