Package: kodi
Version: 2:17.1+dfsg1-2
Severity: normal

Dear Debian folks,


After having added the user *kodi* with `sudo adduser kodi`, then
trying to start Kodi using the systemd service unit [1] with `sudo
systemctl start kodi.service`, Kodi doesn’t start, as the X.Org Server
quits with a fatal error.

```
(EE) xf86OpenConsole: Cannot open virtual console 7 (Permission denied)
```

The page *HOW-TO:Autostart Kodi for Linux* in the Kodi Wiki [2]
suggests to run `sudo dpkg-reconfigure x11-common`, but that doesn’t do
anything on the system here.

Is something else needed, to get the systemd service unit working?


Thanks,

Paul
