 |
|
Hello! So I'm turning a laptop with a broken screen in a Kodi mediacenter, when I launch kodi-standalone as root, everything works as expected. However, when running as a normal user it won't accept any input from keyboard or mouse, kodi itself is running, so not freezing or anything.
When looking through the logs, I assume this is pointing towards the issue
| Code: |

Does this mean I need to make some udev rules? It seems a bit weird as behavior.

I disabled the X useflag on kodi, as I would prefer to work it with GBM,but maybe that's a mistake.
Thank you

| I guess your "normal user" is not part of "input" group. |
