Please do "pastekodi" over SSH and share the URL so we can see what's detected/connected.

Please update to LE11 and redo. I explicitly want to see the output from kmsprint which is included in the pastekodi output in LE11.

^ this reads like we bumped Xorg in LE11 to a version higher than the nVidia legacy driver supports. As a result there is no OpenGL and Kodi cannot start. And if I re-read the LE10 log now it appears to be running but also prints an swrast error (not sure why it would be trying to uset that though). GeForce 8200 is an ancient card now (2008) so I'm wondering if the current legacy drivers go back far enough?

I'm not sure what the issue is here, but ping heitbaum CvH for awareness

To avoid auto detect you can add KODI_GL_INTERFACE=GLX to /storage/.config/kodi.conf.

There is at least a report of LE11beta1 Generic-legacy starting on Nvidia 9500gt: https://github.com/xbmc/xbmc/issu…ment-1422405042

Ok, I just read the other forum, I'm going to try what you tell me and what I read. I'll be back when I have results.

Thank you very much and greetings.
