Kodi loads on ubuntu 14.04 but doesn't open





.everyoneloves__top-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__mid-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__bot-mid-leaderboard:empty{ margin-bottom:0;
}

Latest Kodi (xbmc) was installed/uninstalled/re-installed several times.
Whenever I'm trying to open it nothing happens (no error messages), although using the alt-tab application switcher I can see Kodi's icon (indicating it's running).
Can anyone help me?
Thanks.

  • Two questions: 1. How did you install Kodi? 2. What is the output if you run kodi from a terminal with kodi?
