Hello,
I need some help with getting Kodi to run properly. I have a computer that serves as a file/media server and media PC for a TV. I run Emby in jail and use Kodi as a media player. I've recently upgraded to 12.1 AMD64 from 11.2. I tried using poudriere but it was a total disaster. I finally got all of the ports to rebuild and everything working except Kodi. I have not upgraded the jails yet. That's a problem for another day. The problem I have with kodi is it crashes/core dumps when launched as a regular user. The log doesn't seem too helpful other than possibly there is a gremlin with the graphics card/driver. I'm using an Nvidia gt730 with driver 340 from ports. Everything else seems to be OK. If I launch Kodi from root it works fine. I've tried deleting the .kodi file from the user account as was recommended on some internet searches but that did not fix it. I'm assuming there is a permission problem somewhere but I don't know how to proceed. If anybody has an idea let me know.
Thanks
