Hi,
Kodi does not start if only the AMD inbox driver is installed and tries to access RadeonSI.
It works with the AMD driver from "repo.radeon.com", but I get display errors after a while, somehow I managed to start Kodi once with the inbox driver and it works fine.
Which dependencies do I have to install so that Kodi uses the inbox amdgpu driver?

wget https://repo.radeon.com/amdgpu-install/2...-1_all.deb
sudo apt install ./amdgpu-install_5.7.00.48.50700-1_all.deb
sudo amdgpu-install -y --usecase=graphics
sudo usermod -a -G render,video $LOGNAME

I now know how I got it to start once.
The system boots up to the message "Cloud level target reached", then I have to wait until my monitor goes into standby, about 10 minutes. If I then log in to the web interface and click on the remote control area, then Kodi starts I always have the stupidest bugs...
And what does that have to do with the AMD driver?
As soon as I install the AMD driver, Kodi starts immediately...

I found a solution for the Display corruption/distortion issue

It works with the driver from the AMD Repro. and  ​"allow_rgb10_configs=false" in  "/etc/environment"
