RE: Kodi 20 fails to start with a segmentation fault (Debian 6.1) - fritsch - 2023-01-27
Yeah - I'd go towards debian, especially as the kitty terminal is also affected from the same issue.

That is what I am doing the last few days. The maintainer asked me to install the debug symbols for libc6 and kodi and post a new strace.
The problem is that apt can find libc6-dbg but not the equivalent one for kodi, kodi-bin-dbgsym, althought it does exist here
https://packages.debian.org/sid/kodi-bin-dbgsym
As for troubleshooting the current situation, I found this kodi enviromental variable: KODI_GL_INTERFACE. But starting kodi with
Code:
$ export KODI_GL_INTERFACE=GLES
$ kodiAnd that's all for today. I have some health issues since 12 hours ago (possibly post-covid ones, again) and I may visit the hospital later, so please excuse any delays in answering. Thank you for your understanding.

shell:
echo "deb http://deb.debian.org/debian-debug sid-debug main contrib non-free" > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/sid-debug.list
apt-get update
apt-get install kodi-bin-dbgsym
Replace sid with whichever debian you use, ie bookworm, bullseye etc.

I think I found something...
Earlier, I was searching my distro's package to see if they provide a .service file for systemd. And I came accross this
https://packages.debian.org/sid/amd64/kodi-bin/filelist
That lib on line 4 means that kodi 20 demands a cpu with sse4 instruction set? That was the first thing I thought, but then I noticed that its older versions also have that lib, e.g. 19.1 and 19.4 from stable and stable-backports respectively.

And I just tested le11b1 which came out yesterday and comes with kodi 20. Kodi launches with no issues. I even installed its terminal "addon" to check if it really uses nvidia and not nouveau, and it does use nvidia!
RE: Kodi 20 fails to start with a segmentation fault (Debian 6.1) - jim_p - 2023-02-06
As it seems, I am not the only one facing issues with kodi 20 on nvidia 340

https://github.com/xbmc/xbmc/issues/22491
So, apart from my forementioned question about which opengl version is required by kodi 20, I have a new one. How can I tell if kodi tries to use wayland? Because all those wayland libs made me anxious

Here is THE log of libreelec 11b1, in case anyone finds something useful in it. It contains kodi's log and journalctl stuff.

The only useful thing I found in there is this bit
Code:

I just noticed that the log shows my public ip, and in TWO lines! Removing things like that should be allowed by the rules and it should not qualify as deduction!

As some manjaro user suggested in the relevant issue on github, launching kodi like so
Code:
$ LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/nvidia/libGL.so.1 kodiCode:
[W][05047.389255] pw.conf | [ conf.c: 939 try_load_conf()] can't load config client.conf: No such file or directory
[E][05047.389421] pw.conf | [ conf.c: 963 pw_conf_load_conf_for_context()] can't load default config client.conf: No such file or directoryRE: Kodi 20 fails to start with a segmentation fault (Debian 6.1) - fritsch - 2023-02-11
Those are not imprtant but caused by pipewire "highjacking" the pulseaudio sink of kodi.
RE: Kodi 20 fails to start with a segmentation fault (Debian 6.1) - jim_p - 2023-02-11
I use neither pipewire, nor pulseaudio. Just plain alsa, since ever.
And alsa's outputs are listed inside kodi too, there is nothing related to pw or pa because I do not have them installed.
RE: Kodi 20 fails to start with a segmentation fault (Debian 6.1) - fritsch - 2023-02-11
Okay. Great if stuff is working great.
RE: Kodi 20 fails to start with a segmentation fault - jim_p - 2023-02-20
I removed the "Debian 6.1" part from the title because, as seen in the relevant issue report on github, it is neither a debian nor a kernel (and probably not a kodi) issue.
RE: Kodi 20 fails to start with a segmentation fault - jim_p - 2023-05-10
Time to put the padlock on this one. As it seems, the issue will be fixed on 20.2 because of this change.

RE: Kodi 20 fails to start with a segmentation fault - jim_p - 2023-06-29
Finally, today's release of 20.2 fixed the issue. Please lock the thread.
