First decide what functions / features you expect from a system. Then decide for the hardware. Don't waste your money on crap.

Thank you very much for your help, but nothing it does not want to work. I sincerely I don't know what happen. I was testing the Kodi 18 release and after an update this has happened. I'd like to remove Kodi and clena totally any file from my system and after that try to reinstall it

Code:
sudo apt-get purge kodi kodi-bin
sudo rm -rf ~lino/.kodi

then install again.

I install again follow this command :
sudo apt-get install software-properties-common
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:team-xbmc/ppa
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install kodi

but not works. I see that do not write anything in home/lino. I don't see .kodi

please do 'exactly' the following. Just copy and paste the commands to your command line to rule out typos!!!!:

Code:
sudo apt-get install pastebinit
this will install a service we will need for further commands

After the next command, you will get an URL as an ouput. Post that URL (and all further URLs from other commands) in your next posting

Code:
apt-cache policy kodi | pastebinit

Code:
ls -al ~/ | pastebinit

Code:
ls -al /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ | pastebinit

Of course it doesn't install anything in .kodi. That directory is created when kodi is run for the first time.

I am confused, What happens now when you run kodi in the command line?

The same happened to me after the latest upgrade to 17.2. Can we somehow choose to reinstall 17.1 instead
of 17.2 or the only option is to downgrade to 16.1 from kodi-old repository?

I believe we are screwed, because when I looked at synaptic package manager it did not show 17.1 anymore.
But, hopefully I am wrong and we can get this thing fixed up.

Let's just not panic and wait it out to see what will happen. There's still the
option to install 16.1 for the moment.
