Are you using a line in inittab that su's to your user and runs that command
or an init script?

I have what ought to be a simple task. I want to start freevo at boot on
its own display, as my user and with a different X layout. The
equivalent of this:

[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ startx -- :1 -layout ntsc

My .xsession execs freevo, and while I'd prefer something that didn't
require dedicating my .xsession to it, I'm ok with that. I'm also ok
with making a freevo user but that would be no easier than running it as
me, I think.

I run gdm on vt7, which logs me into a gnome session.

I am having a very hard time actually doing this, for some inexplicable
reason. Please enlighten me.

There's nothing remarkable about it. All one has to do is hit the
right keys at the right time and the instrument plays itself.
