RetroArch does not open

lose

I am using the Orange Pi PC Plus board with Armbian (Ubuntu 16.04.2 LTS) and installed the retroarch per ppa as well as the site specification, but retroarch does not open. The error is in the gpu driver loading.

GPU: Mali400MP2 GPU @ 600MHz
Supports OpenGL ES 2.0

It looks like you have encountered some issues with your Orange Pi PC Plus board when trying to use RetroArch. The GPU driver seems to be the cause of the issue, as it is not able to load. The GPU (Mali400MP2) supports OpenGL ES 2.0, so it should be compatible with RetroArch. Unfortunately, the Wayland server failed to connect, which is likely the cause of the problem. It's a shame that you've been unable to get RetroArch up and running,  real estate services Buckeye  but hopefully these insights will help you find a solution.
