Looks like the graphics X11 subsystem needs to be installed?
What package should I install for Rock64 Debian Stretch to leverage the hardware acceleration and/or 4K support?
You have to have X11 for kodi krypton which is going to change in Leia with I think a DRI Wayland implementation (dunno haven't read enough)
https://www.richud.com/wiki/Ubuntu_Minimal_KODI_Install (exchange the kodi user elements to rock64 and add rock64 to the video & audio groups)
That will give you a basic Kodi but been round this one several times.
What I have been doing is trying to get Xorg to use the Mali driver and provide GL ES 2 or FBDev with Glamor 2D acceleration.
Both are software libraries and actually it is possible, also to use the NEON to provide 2D acceleration of 100% gains and also keep that work off the CPU, noone seems interested.
If you follow the above URL you will end up with LLVMpipe virtual card using GL and you will also find the UI with this has all procs roughly about 100%.
To say it sucks is like saying Irma was just a bit of hot air, it sucks big style.
Isn't a chance you will get any better with Stretch as the Rockchip optimized xorg server isn't implemented.
In fact to my surprise if you do a apt-cache -showpgk [package] you will see we get the mainline ubuntu xserver in xenial.
The https://github.com/rockchip-linux/xserver that is Ayufans PPA doesn't have priority and libmali will just crash out with a seg fault.
There isn't an image with any form of graphics optimization or customization and consequently under Linux the Rock64 sucks and unless you can get round kernel compilation with the matching kernel and userspace drivers which I think are currently incorrect.
Patch the umplock patch to kernel and also compile the DRM & DRI...
Too much for me and strangely its missing from every image available, so graphically you have a SBC that like mine might be destined for the bin.
Or wait for 18.04 next year some time with kernel 4.14 which has much already in the mainline. Maybe with 4.14 release we might see a restart on the distro images and rockchip specifics.

PS Stretch is like the Artful images and Ayufan is only providing for xenial even if ppa:xserver is not pulled in preference for the xenial version.
Then with xenial there are not backports for just 2 kodi (ppa) libs but gave up as everything is so totally disjointed.
What I wanted to do is startx with kodi and have a chromium option which would swap sessions, but all a bit pointless as we don't have an image that is distinctly capable.
The offerings by others are just hacks to knock down proc requirements to a bare min so it will run all via LLVMpipe on the CPU, which even after its ropey & slow.
Raybuntu might give you some handy hints maybe, but I took all this as a bad sign and ground to a halt.
Why we have all these images and not a complete installation of the Debian 9 / 4.4 kernel is confusing and also a shame we don't have any of the 2d acceleration to at least try.
Haven't tried it on Debian but have a look at http://lxqt.org/ as opposed to LXDE as it will prob be one of the first non-X desktops as QT doesn't need X11.
