This clearly has nothing to do with either AVR or Kodi:

Fatal server error:
[454405.763] (EE) no screens found(EE)
[454405.763] (EE)

X.org fails to load the driver and thus no X server or applications can start. This is what you need to troubleshoot.

Can't see anything odd other than the nvidia driver being loaded despite you having an AMD GPU. Perhaps your nForce motherboard is identified as a GPU somehow. Have you tried LE8 alpha?

Post your kernel log: "dmesg | pastebinit"

I read your post too quickly, the dtparam=audio=on is to enable ALSA for the RPi internal soundcard. Weird that there's no sound in Kodi when selecting the device, you still shouldn't need an asound.conf (unless you want to use non-Kodi ALSA apps).

ALSA is disabled by default on RPi (god knows why), you need dtparam=audio=on in /flash/config.txt. You don't need asound.conf.

20161218 (Atom):

- Kodi 17 beta 7
- Vice C64 3.0
- Updated Mesa has improved Radeon Vulkan driver 
- beetle-psx-libretro Vulkan support
- VAAPI (Intel) 10-bit HEVC support

Atom build (Intel only) uploaded, Generic build is compiling.

EDIT: Generic build 20161219 is up. Changes from the above Atom build is an updated RetroArch with >2 player netplay and updated SDL2.

Didn't realize so many had older cpu's in their htpc I'll put out a new regular optimized build soon have too many builds going atm but maybe tomorrow.

What type of cpu do you have? I thought the atom optimization should be safe for most modern cpu's, perhaps you have something older?

I'm guessing it's a RTL8723BS SDIO Wifi/BT adapter like the other cherry trail devices. There is an out of tree driver full of bugs that will probably work, but I doubt the LE devs would want to maintain that because they will stop working with newer kernels. There's always the option of rolling your own though.

I did package up the driver previously as I thought my device had the same chip, but I was wrong so it's untested. Feel free to use it however you like.

20161215 (Generic):

- I now optimize for Atom (-march=silvermont) by default, it's only a few more optimizations up from the default x86-64 so should be safe for most
- Linux 4.9.0
- Built with GCC 6.3.0-RC-20161214
- xf86-video-nvidia 375.26/340.101

I've added a drm-next build as well for Cherry Trail / Bay Trail devices. It's exactly the same except for the drm-next kernel with updated HDMI audio patch and without nvidia/amd drivers.

Does not happen here on i5 haswell or x5 cherry trail.

Try a "clean" install without lubetube and you.jizz

Not possible, steam is 32 bit.

I get some random freezes on boot with Tronsmart Ara X5 plus. When it boots everything is fine though tested video playback and gaming. I think Cherry Trail is simply still not well supported by upstream Linux. The HDMI LPE audio patch is not even in drm-next yet. There's also some issue with power management and CPU frequency scaling.

You might want to compare with my latest extended build, it's got Linux 4.9 (drm-next-nightly) and updated mesa/xf86-video-intel drivers.

Like I said, last build has 304 so if your card needs 340 then that's it.

I think my latest generic build has 304 nvidia drivers, you'll have to wait for the next build.

I've uploaded a custom build 20161214:

- Compiled for Atom X5 or higher (-march=silvermont)
- Uses drm-next kernel with new HDMI audio patch for Cherry Trail / Bay Trail (should work with multi channel PCM now)
- No nvidia/amd drivers
- Updated packages: beetle-psx-libretro, retroarch, mupen64plus-libretro, mesa, glupen64-libretro
- Rebased on latest LE
