Just thought I would throw my solution up here. WARNING>> THis is not
very secure. I Actually just set freevo to  start from my rc.local
file with 'freevo -fs &'. I do have freevo installed system wide. This
runs freevo as root. you could also do something like 'su -u freevo -c
freeo -fs' to starts as a user other than root.
