[kodi-rpi 19.2-1] USB not working

[unformatted]

I just installed aarch64 on RPi4, switched kernel to linux-raspsberrypi4 and installed kodi. While I'm in a terminal both keyboard and remote on USB are working. When I start kodi they don't work anymore.

Cannot reproduce here. On aarch64, same kernel, same kodi. USB keyboard works before and after loading. Anything in journalctl, dmesg, or kodi.log (set to debug mode)? If you exit kodi, does the keyboard come back to life? Have you tried different USB ports?

[unformatted]

I cannot set kodi to debug mode because I have no control. Anyway, I've attached dmesg, journalctl and kodi log. If I quit kodi using ctrl-c then I have keyboard and remote working. I tried all 4 usb ports.

Well, attachments don't work so here's pastebin.

Yes I run kodi as my "regular" user using "/usr/bin/kodi-standalone" from the terminal. Actually I use a bash startup script using dialog which gives me a menu with "LXDE" and "Kodi". This way I can start kodi from the menu and when I exit kodi, I'm back in the menu and can start my LXDE desktop session.

Using "sudo systemctl start kodi.service" works but I want to run kodi as my regular user, having .kodi folder in my /home/user folder, not in /root folder.

On my other RPI4 ARMv7 with kodi-rpi 19.1-11 using "/usr/bin/kodistandalone" works. For some reason on AArch64 with linux-raspberrypi4 kernel and kodi-rpi 19.2-1 using "/usr/bin/kodi-standalone" from terminal I cannot control kodi with keyboard or remote anymore.

So can I use "/usr/bin/kodi-standalone" command if I provide my user as you described?

If so, I would have to create "/etc/sysusers.d/sysusers.conf" as follows? I am user and belong to users group.
$this->bbcode_second_pass_code('', '

# override these settings by copying this to /etc/sysusers.d/ and modifying it therein

# Type Name ID GECOS Home directory Shell
g users - -
u user - "Kodi User" /var/lib/kodi

# supplemental groups
m users audio
m users input
m users video
m users disk
m users network
m users optical
m users power
m users storage
m users tty
')

Your regular user needs to be in the supplemental groups. Google usermod or see the Arch wiki. The systemd service is the most secure way to run kodi and It Just Works™
