Folks,

I searched the user archives for a solution to my problem, but came up empty.

My distro, SourceMage GNU/Linux mounts the /tmp directory as:

tmpfs on /tmp type tmpfs (rw)

a temporary file system. Therefore, when my computer shuts down due to power failiure (I live in Montana), my xml tv listings in /tmp are gone apon reboot.

What I'd like to do is tell Freevo to place and look for the tv listings in the home directory of my Freevo user (hometheater).

Is this possible to do in the configuration files somewhere?

Thank you,

Bearcat M. Sandor

There may be one, but in case there isn't, why don't you just put it elsewhere, like /root/TV.xml, and add this to your boot scripts, after tmpfs gets mounted:
ln -sf /root/TV.xml /tmp/TV.xml


It's a 10-second fix that lasts forever and avoids looking for another setting. =)

Regards,
Chad
