Hi.
multimedia/kodi stopped starting at some point. It crashes on startup:
Code: 
[12:16] vg (/home) kodi
libva info: VA-API version 1.15.0
libva info: Trying to open /usr/local/lib/dri/nvidia_drv_video.so
libva info: va_openDriver() returns -1
Crash report available at /home/kodi_crashlog-20220827_121614.log
[12:16] vg (/home)

Code: 
[12:16] vg (/home) vainfo
error: XDG_RUNTIME_DIR is invalid or not set in the environment.
libva info: VA-API version 1.15.0

libva info: va_openDriver() returns -1
vaInitialize failed with error code -1 (unknown libva error),exit
[12:19] vg (/home)
Why is that?

BTW, I only use the Integrated Graphics on my Thinkpad t430.

But I am not using the NVIDIA gpu.
 
Yes... GeForce GT 610
I always had only multimedia/libvdpau and multimedia/libva installed and, until recently, everything worked fine. It crashed after updating packages:

I don't know which package had what effect.
After installing multimedia/libvdpau-va-gl:

It's funny... I reinstalled, uninstalled and installed Kodi and its dependencies, but I didn't even think about the driver.
It works. Thank you!
 
After updating Kodi to v.20, now when starting this problem
Code: 
% kodi
libva info: VA-API version 1.17.0
libva error: vaGetDriverNameByIndex() failed with unknown libva error, driver_name = (null)
Crash report available at /home/kodi_crashlog-20230215_202404.log
Reinstalled all the necessary and unnecessary. Doesn't work. Is this solvable?
 
If anyone is interested... So it turns out that the new version of Kodi has something wrong with GL/GLX and NVIDIA compatibility (Discussion).
This command solves it:
Code: 
%  env LD_PRELOAD=/usr/local/lib/libGL-NVIDIA.so kodi
Kodi starts up and works.
