There's a template in /etc/rc.d/init.d/template. You'd need to add the
system ivman command (whatever that is) after the *proc commands. Then
you'd need to make the symlinks in /etc/rc.d/rc*.d so that it's
executed by init. You can probably look at the hal symlinks and make
it start just after hal and stop just before hal.

I think Alexander has used it. You'd probably want to add the session
process to .xinitrc. If you're using a display manager, then you
should try to find out it's mechanism for launching sessions. If you
want it at a lower level so that it works on the Linux console, then
that would be a little trickier. Maybe there's some documentation on
setups shipped with ivman. I'm just guessing since I haven't used it.
