Intel VAAPI howto with Leia v18 nightly based on Ubuntu 18.04 server
Ugh.... I was messing around trying to see if a distro upgrade would fix my live tv video stuttering. I had been previously using the nightlies builds on 16.04 with good success. I upgraded to 17.10 (do-release-upgrade)

My system is a J4205, 8gb ram, ssd, some hdd's. Nothing fancy. No Kodi log since it does not appear to be starting. My TV is a 4k Hisense 55H7B (kind of curious about the best settings for my tv). My dockers seem to be running fine. 

REVERTING THIS SEEMS TO HAVE FIXED MY ISSUE: I have previously setup "Want to boot with AVR / TV powered off? Have a look here: https://forum.kodi.tv/showthread.php?tid...pid2148505" to try troubleshooting a issue if I let the power settings put my TV to sleep where it would never wake back up without a reboot (didn't work - GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash video=DP-2:1920x1080@60D drm_kms_helper.edid_firmware=DP-2:edid/edid.bin" is the grub line). 

I went through the initial setup and verified everything. The one issue I ran into is the "apt install kodi kodi-bin" line. Now it wants to install kodi and kodi-x11 and will not let kodi-bin be installed due to a conflict. Is this a wayland thing? Either way here are my logs (sans kodi and amixer):
