From the console the -fs is a good option as it will start freevo using the default server setting in the xorg.conf and will really display freevo in full-screen. >> What are you geometry settings in freevo_conf.py?

I did mean /etc/freevo.conf. If you are using the keyboard then IIRC you need to type 'q' and enter. To trace this sort of problem add to local_conf.py the following: DEBUG = 1 DEBUG_CHILDAPP = 1 LOGGING = logging.DEBUG Then check the xine-stdout and xine-stderr log files. The location of the log files should be in the main-X.log.
