Only difference, one needs to install the xserver-xorg-legacy packages and reconfigure that instead of x11-common. Also wsnipex vaapi ppa is not needed anymore. For kodi one could also install the kodi nightly ppa.

Sorry to ask but how did you find out that you need to install xserver-xorg-legacy? Because I really thought I looked everywhere for anything related xserver and 16.04 but I also noticed that when you did sudo dpkg-reconfigure x11-common that you couldn't choose everyone anymore.

When everything I need is xserver-xorg-legacy, I might give it a try later today. Thank you for the update on 16.04

@wsnipex: I got permission denied when I tried to start xinit from systemd. Everything else worked just fine.

Big secret :-) - no kidding - did you ever look into the apt-file package? With this you can search for packages that provide a certain file, in our case: Xwrapper.config, so after sudo apt-file update I did apt-file search XWrapper and there it was.
First decide what functions / features you expect from a system. Then decide for the hardware. Don't waste your money on crap.
