Ubuntu Utopic (14.10) + Kodi 14: CEC not working, freeze on exit
#1
Hello everyone,

I got an upgraded XBMCBuntu / Kodibuntu (upgraded to Utopic 14.10) with Kodi installed. I've got problems with high cpu usage (one core always at 100%). Couldn't figure out until I unplugged my Pulse-Eight USB-CEC adapter. High cpu usage and freeze on exit problems solved, but (obviously) no CEC. CEC always worked before (on Ubuntu 12.10).

With USB-CEC adapter plugged in, Kodi shows an error on startup: "couldn't initialize CEC adapter, please check settings". The Peripherals option shows the available device with settings, but it has no effect, CEC not working.

This thread has two purposes:
1. to let people coping with high CPU usage find this thread and possibly solve their high CPU usage problem
2. to let people reply that have had the same problems and managed to fix this

Thank you in advance.
