none of the old fixes for XBMCbuntu will work as of 14.0

the way Kodi does the display has changed; before it was done via SDL, now it is native X11.

the way i resolved it was to add openbox to the init scripts for Kodi, so it is always running. less elegant than the launchers, but the only way i could get it to go.

if you launch openbox via a script like the old methods i wrote and like is included in the custom script, it does not get controll over all the applications and is kinda messy. in the curent setup, openbox needs to be open before kodi is.

Just arriving to this party and trying to get this working. Could you elaborate on where/when/how you're currently launching openbox? Would be so helpful since I just spent a few hours trying everything from the first several pages of this thread.

Thanks!
