Do you mean I have freevo -fs? If so that's true, my only freevo box is 
hooked up to the TV in the sitting room and launches from rc.local with 
freevo -fs. I don't run X, freevo takes care of it. I'm sure I could 
manage to get gnome to run and start freevo if I had to but I've been 
doing it this way for years and when running under gnome I remember a 
really annoying resizing problem when going from freevo to video and 
back again, with freevo in fullscreen under gnome switching to or from a 
video would reveal the desktop momentarily, not a runner for a family 
friendly TV interface.

I've just fixed my freevo install after breaking kaa so I'll double 
check that and let you know. I'm only testing with mplayer so I assume 
that should work.

Checking that out has been on my todo list since I first saw it being 
checked in to svn :( I'll get there some day...
