Couple issues with the error screen

[bslenul]

What version of melonDS DS are you using?

1.0.2

Does the problem happen in standalone melonDS?

No, it's a bug specific to melonDS DS.

What happened?

First issue is pretty minor: if you start the core without content with the built-in BIOS, it will spam [INFO] [Environ]: SET_ROTATION: 0 non-stop in the logs during the error screen.

Second issue is if you start the core without content with the built-in BIOS but with the OpenGL renderer, it crashes RetroArch: crash-240128-133423.log

edit: To be clear, when I say "error screen" I mean this (adorable) screen:

edit2: I was able to reproduce on my Linux Mint 21.2 VM as well.

What should've happened instead?

In software mode it shouldn't spam [INFO] [Environ]: SET_ROTATION: 0 during the error screen, and in GL mode it shouldn't crash.

• Windows
• macOS
• Linux
• Android
• iOS
• tvOS
• Other (specify below)

Which versions of the OS?

In RetroArch <= 1.18, this was posted to the RetroArch log INFO, but in RetroArch 1.19.0, it's now DEBUG instead, so it won't spam:
libretro/RetroArch#16454

if you start the core without content with the built-in BIOS but with the OpenGL renderer, it crashes RetroArch

Confirmed here, as well. Good find.
