Hi,

I wonder why I read "Kernel: Linux 3.14-1-amd64 #1 SMP Debian 3.14.9-1 (2014-06-30)"
On my Debian servers (jessie), I am a little far:

Code:

# uname -v
#1 SMP Debian 3.16.7-ckt20-1+deb8u1 (2015-12-14)

I will help as far as I can:
1/ you are running debian 7.0 (wheezy) or debian 8.0 (jessie)
(you can see in the file /etc/os-release)
2/ did you perform a "clean" upgrade

Code:

$ sudo apt-get update
$ sudo apt-get upgrade
$ sudo reboot
$ sudo apt-get dist-upgrade

3/ after you launch kodi bin, what are the error sotred in journalctl ?

Code:

# journalctl -xn

it seems you have some problem with your X interface

There are multiple issues in your log - the user running kodi has no permissions to access audio device - make triple sure it is member of video and audio group for the other issue with libcec make sure it is member of plugdev group .... Make sure to reboot after changing group permissions.

Your issue is a problem of the underlaying installed debian OS, which is not setup properly.

Hi @zephura @fritsch

I use SID, and have multiple kernel image:

linux-image-3.14-1-amd64 3.14.9-1
linux-image-3.15.3 3.15.3-10.00.Custom
linux-image-4.3.0-1-amd64 4.3.3-2

with all kernels Kodi does not start

Update/Upgrade/Dist-Upgrade performed without problems

I added user htpc to the groups but that didn't change anything.

]# id htpc
uid=1001(htpc) gid=1001(htpc) grupy=1001(htpc),20(dialout),24(cdrom),29(audio),30(dip),44(video),46(plugdev),100(users),119(remote-console),130(input)

@fritsch "Your issue is a problem of the underlaying installed debian OS, which is not setup properly."
I think so too, but when i installed kodi from a debian repo i works fine.

ii kodi 15.2+dfsg1-1+b2 amd64 Open Source Home Theatre (executable binaries)
ii kodi-bin:amd64 15.2+dfsg1-1+b2 amd64 Open Source Home Theatre (architecture-dependent files)
ii kodi-data 15.2+dfsg1-1 all Open Source Home Theatre (arch-independent data package)
ii kodi-pvr-hts 2.1.18-1 amd64 Kodi PVR Addon TvHeadend Hts

So far i compiled (and don't work):
* tag 16.0b4-Jarvis
* tag 16.0b3-Jarvis
* branch Jarvis
* branch master

next i will check 16.0b2-Jarvis, 16.0b1-Jarvis and stable.

Here is my crashlog from beta3 http://paste.debian.net/356117/ What else can I check?

Problem solved.
Libcec hasn't been recompiled after dist-upgrade

Is this normal that kodi crash when external lib is invalid?
