kodi dialogs flickering?

i recently switched from kodibuntu to galliumos.
galliumos appears more stable so far.
however all dialogs in kodi flicker badly.
pause osd and menus, movie information etc. all flicker.
main menu, views and video are fine.

i searched and this appears to be an issue that crops up from time to time.
i tried changing various system and video settings to no effect.

this is only a kodi issue everything else in gallium looks good.

this is a stand alone install to an acer cxi and i updated the firmware on 4.5.2016

is this operator error or are others seeing this issue?
i will post a log if it is needed.

any ideas?

thanks

your best bet for this is to post in the GalliumOS subreddit or ask in their IRC web chat channel; I haven't tested Kodi under GaOS extensively and don't know all the tweaks they've made under the hood.

How did you install Kodi - and what version are you running?

Most of us in these parts running Linux with Kodi are using Ubuntu/Kodibuntu, Debian or OpenElec (with a few Arch users) - not sure about GalliumOS. What distro is it based on? (Is it Debian, Arch, Fedora etc. based?)

it's a (L)Ubuntu LTS based distro that's optimized for ChromeOS hardware (Chromebooks mainly)
