Comment: at this moment the complete media library is not loaded. I tried to setup acpi. When using '/etc/acpi/sleep.sh' (Ubuntu Hardy) I noticed problems with my hard disk maybe because of the hdparm commands in this script. I also like to toggle freevo from fullscreen to window because there is always something to edit or to configure. When booting directly into freevo I always had to log out and log in sitting in front of my tv. Using remote desktop is another benefit so I can work at my desk. regards, Markus ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Check out the new SourceForge.net Marketplace.
