Hi! I'm not very experienced in Linux and need some help with something. One of my myth boxes is hooked to a Plasma via a DVI-HDMI connection. For some reason, very infrequently, they seem to lose synch when switching to or from watching video. Once that happens, I can't get the TV to display the output unless I restart X (I think). I normally fix it in one of two ways: I dig out the keyboard, log out and let the mythbox do the auto login and mythfrontend start up. Or, I log in remotely via SSH and restart the entire machine.
What I would like to do is get a script that either just restarts X (would I have to stop and start mythfrontend?) or one that logs out the console (and allows the Automatic login and mythfrontend restart). I could then tie this script to a button on my remote for my wife to use. But, I can't figure out either without quickly getting confused. If someone could help me, I'd appreciate it. Here's what I want to do: #First kill any mythfrontend process that is running sudo killall mythfrontend #<insert logout or restart X command here> sudo mythfrontend -l /var/log/mythtv/mythfrontend.log & Thanks!
