Hi,

I attached a XPT2046 3.5'' touch screen to my pi 3b.
The screen works and touch works as well after installing LCD-show.

However, when I start kodi it creates some initial files in .kodi but then it hands and all I see is the busy mouse cursor.

I checked the kodi.log file and it only has 2 ERRORS:

2020-12-14 16:32:51.872 T:1899884560   ERROR: DBus error: org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.ServiceUnknown - The name org.freedesktop.UPower was not provided by any .service files
2020-12-14 16:33:08.494 T:1641820384   ERROR: CVideoPlayer::OpenInputStream - error opening [/var/run/lirc/lircd]

Is this touch screen going to work once setup correctly? if yes, what do I have to do please?

Thanks,
Martin

Only two ..? Smile

How about you provide us with the full debug log (wiki), instead of giving us only 2 lines and having us figure the rest out on our own?

Hi,
"unfortunately", yes, only 2 errors.
the log file is here: hastebin - oyozigowuc (kodi.tv)

thanks so much for looking at the logfile
I'm assuming it's this one... https://paste.kodi.tv/oyozigowuc.kodi

Here's the thing: Team Kodi does not compile Kodi builds for Raspbian (or Raspberry Pi OS), and it is also not involved with the operating system.
I think it's best if you'd knock on the door of the Raspberry Pi forum, and ask the people who are directly involved with your OS and your setup.

correct. I was suprised myself to see what happened after copy&pasting the URL.
you may see a resolution of 800x600 - I tried to fake a higher res (native are 480x320) - hoping that it would help.
you also see that I ctrl-c'ed the process after a while as nothing was happening.

ok thanks.

fun fact: the log file gets populated when I touch the screen, however, all I see is my desktop of the window manager but not a kodi window.

anyways, thanks for your time! I appreciate it.
