The issue
I have an issue where KODI is consistently crashing after a few minutes idle when on the GUI. Crashing does not occur during video playback. The crash manifests itself as a black screen, and is unrecoverable. I have to close the window.

The setup
KODI runs on an Intel NUC NUC8I3BEK (Intel Core i3 8109U). My media library is CIFS share mounted at /mnt for KODI to consume from. My setup is pretty vanilla, I use no addons except for the default ones. I'll post them below. I'm using the Estuary skin, but the problem seems to occur with any skin. I've tried several.

OS: Debian - Linux tvnuc 4.19.0-8-amd64 #1 SMP Debian 4.19.98-1+deb10u1 (2020-04-27) x86_64 GNU/Linux
KODI: Kodi 2:17.6+dfsg1-4+b1


Troubleshooting:
So far I've tried the following:

• Remove and re-install KODI
  
• Tried multiple skins
  
• Removed ~/.kodi directory
  

The details
Looking at the debug logs, it appears to be an odd GL rendering issue, which might not be an issue with KODI itself, but maybe a dodgy graphics driver. I'd appreciate any help if any has seen this before.

We don't support the version you are running. It's more than 3 years old and broken patched with an ffmpeg version not matching our release.
Furthermore the SW stack you have is very old. If Coffee-Lake is properly supported, no one knows besides debian.

Please file a bug with them, they can check in their QA records if this version they provide has ever run on your hardware.

Thanks folks. And sorry for the log spam, I saw the notice as I submitted the post and I couldn't edit to fix.
