How can I get Openmsx in full screen on Raspbian . I installed with aptitude install openmsx-catapult . I set the scaler to 4 times . It;s only part of the screen . I tried to edit config.txt framebuffer , but it is not possible to save the changed config file .

Did you try to toggle the fullscreen setting? See http://openmsx.org/manual/commands.html#fullscreen or just hit F12 for the keyboard shortcut for it, see http://openmsx.org/manual/user.html#keymapping
It's also in Catapult in the Video tab: http://openmsx.org/catapult-manual/user.html#video

I tried that,but still a small part of the screen.
Installed Retropie on a different SD card , then on booting back to the terminal ( F4 ) , Installed openmsx through the terminal with sudo aptitude install openmsx-Catapult . When starting openmsx through the terminal, it is fullscreen .
But how do I add openmsx to the Emulationstation through the terminal ? The default emulator is not supporting function keys like openmsx .

Strange.

Anyway, sorry, I don't know anything about EmulationStation.

I've written a howto for Retropi: http://blog.petrockblock.com/forums/topic/msx-emulator-and-d...

Hi there!

I have raspberry pi3 and retropie 3.8, i followed your guide about to load Disk images in OpenMSX from the EmulationStation GUI. All goes fine but when i need to swap a DISK IMAGE (for example, playing with "Rune Worth") i can´t swap....i tried to press F10 and type in command line ">diska insert RuneWorthDISK2.dsk" but it doesn´t work...so, it´s possible to play multi-dsk msx games on EmulationStation?

What exactly do you mean with "does not work"? Do you get an error? If so, which? It is hard to help without a more precise problem description....

Hi, just was solved by myself,

From F10 menu:

>diska

show active path (example:{/Retropie/roms/msx/game1.dsk})

>diska eject

>diska insert {/Retropie/roms/msx/game2.dsk}

Yeah, I already had the feeling it was a path problem and that "doesn't work" meant that you got an error that the file wasn't found. But you didn't say that
