Start X and "x11vnc" so I can interact with MythTV remotely with VNC viewer: x:12345:respawn:/bin/su - mythtv -c /home/mythtv/startup.sh vnc:12345:respawn:/bin/su - mythtv -c 'sleep 2 && x11vnc -forever -rfbport 5900 -rfbauth ~/.vnc/passwd' startup.sh (remember to "chmod +x" it to make it executable): -- #!/bin/bash startx & sleep 3 export DISPLAY=:0.0 /usr/bin/mythfrontend -l /var/log/mythtv/frontend.log -- Finally, here is my ~mythtv/.xinitrc -- # Merge X resources from ~/.Xdefaults [ -f $HOME/.Xdefaults ] && xrdb $HOME/.Xdefaults # Set the background and root cursor shape xsetroot -solid black #\#400040 xsetroot -cursor_name top_left_arrow # Start evilwm - snap to borders within 10 pixels #/usr/bin/evilwm -snap 6 -bw 0 & ratpoison & wmpid=$! /usr/X11R6/bin/xset s noblank & /usr/X11R6/bin/xset s off & /usr/X11R6/bin/xset -dpms & #xterm & export QT_XFT=1 ~/nvidia-settings.sh #mythfrontend -l /var/log/mythtv/mythfrontend.log & #/usr/local/bin/mythfrontend -l /var/log/mythtv/mythfrontend.log & # sleep makes it so irxevent works # uncomment these if you don't compile lirc into mythtv #(set the lirc USE variable to compile lirc support into mythtv) #sleep 3 #irxevent & # when the window manager exits, allow the X server to be torn down wait $wmpid -- So it's a bit muddle and I could take it out of a script and put it all in one line in the inittab but I prefer it like this (for simple kiosk system at work I did move it all to the inittab but I like to tinker with MythTV). With this setup, if you exit MythTV/X it will be restarted by init in 3 seconds. _______________________________________________ mythtv-users mailing list [email protected] http://mythtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/mythtv-users
