I still use automatic login with /etc/gdm/gdm.conf but I don't boot into freevo directly. The file ~/.dmrc keeps unchanged to start gnome as usual. [Desktop] Session=gnome
In ~/.config/autostart/ you have to create a new file freevo.desktop. [Desktop Entry] Encoding=UTF-8 Name=Freevo Comment=Freevo Icon= Exec=freevo Terminal=false Type=Application Categories= OnlyShowIn=GNOME;XFCE If you would like to have freevo started for all users use the directory '/etc/xdg/autostart/freevo.desktop' instead to store this file. You have to be root. When you configure freevo to start in fullscreen mode everything is perfect. freevo will start up after booting the computer. Advantages of this solution: - you can toggle fullscreen mode - you have a full featured gnome session - remote desktop is supported - using the sleep button of the keyboard works perfectly - many more Thanks and regards Markus ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Check out the new SourceForge.net Marketplace.
