Ubuntu 18.04 LightDM / Openbox. Automatically installed Compositor?
Does lightdm or xorg or openbox automatically install a compositor on 18.04?
I ask because awhile back I upgraded my server / htpc to 18.04 and had washed out video and out of sync audio. Mythtv was the worst playback of anything. Rolled back to 16.04 and everything was fine. Last night I was tinkering with something and added compton and the problem came back. Stop and remove compton, problem solved. So I'm thinking somehow a compositor is being enabled on 18.04 that I am not aware of, and it is messing with Kodi.
This issue is holding me back from upgrading to 18.04.
*EDIT* Software selection is very basic. Ubuntu server LTS with Xorg, Openbox, Lightdm, Kodi. Lightdm autostarts Openbox, which autostarts Kodi. Nothing fancy with gui stuff. Direct Kodi load while being supported on the Kodi forum is my goal.
