The way I do it on my mythtv frontend is to have this |
| 13 |
in /etc/local.d/mythtv.start |
| 14 |
|
| 15 |
/bin/su - mythtv -c "/usr/bin/startx &>/dev/null" & |
| 16 |
|
| 17 |
Then start mythfrontend from ~mythtv/.xinitrc |
| 18 |
|
| 19 |
That way there's no display manager or window manager getting in the way. |
