Linux HOW TO: Minimal Ubuntu 16.04 with Kodi, Steam & EmulationStation

I tried to setup the NFS-option in Kodi and if i choose the server, it shows the directories, but I cannot open them. I think if it works, it will be a great solution to bypass the systemd-nfs-issue . Maybe I have to change the exports file from the Server, but this is another project....

I followed your suggestion to monitor the running processes and it works great.
Here is the current configuration:

- start session Openbox in lightdm.conf

- Openbox autostarts Kodi

- My Monitorinig script checks wether there are openbox-childprocesses, gnome-terminal-sessions and kodi-sessions. If no one of them is active, it starts kodi.

- crontab starts the script every 10 seconds in my case

Thanks for your help. I will test this config the next days.

EDIT: I saw that if Kodi is started by cron, the shutdown-options in kodi are missing. Maybe kodi needs in cron a parameter to show this options again?

Greetings

Nicke
