Hi guys,

I installed Kodi on Arch Linux (Asus Chromebox 2955U) but I'm experiencing a few issues.

#1 GPU freezes (supposedly fixed with Kernel 3.19)

#2 Very high CPU usage and the log gets spammed with [drm:drm_edid_block_valid] *ERROR* EDID checksum is invalid, remainder is 45

Using Kernel 3.18.2-2-ARCH

#1 will also be fixed with 3.18.4
#2 -> your TV whatever announces a fully bad EDID, use drm_kms_helper to overwrite it with a vaild one (see arch wiki on howto do so).
