slow kodi on linux? - piner64 - 07-20-2016

Hi all,
Just got my pine and was eager to test it out.
I installed Linux (latest debian) and was able to do most of what I needed - sshd, nginx, clang, all kinds of goodies! Smile
However, when I start Kodi it is unusably-slow. It takes like 10-15 seconds to update the cursor position.
Is this related to the long fore-coming Mali driver? What exactly goes wrong?
Thanks!

The video driver is the weak link ...

... smart people are working on this as we speak; so , be patient, sit tight, and things will be working before you know it... remember, a watched pot never boils. Smile

Wise words my friend, thanks! BTW is that the Mali driver or unrelated?

More here. But don't look at it too much. It might reach critical mass before we have it under control. ;-)
