  What's a clean way to add the xmodmap tweak to the freevo standalone

 I I'm not sure if there is a easy way to add to the scripts, but I
 just xinit and have it start freevo.  I can then start anything I may
 need, such as nvidia-settings to adjust the screen on the tv.

I copied my ~/.xinitrc and my ~/.Xmodmap tweaks to /home/freevo/ and it
hasn't made any difference. 

Looks like .xinitrc is not executed when starting X via the freevo
startup script in /etc/init.d.

Looks like this is going to be fun.

Hi

try

#su freevo
//add freevo to end of .xinitrc
---8-
#!/bin/sh
xmodmap ~/.Xmodmap

freevo

---8-


#startx -- -config xorg.conf.tvout :1.0 vt09

not as nice as starting freevo starting x.
then put startx -- -config xorg.conf.tvout :1.0 vt09
in a script to start freevo to save time.

Later

That's pretty good. 

I'll give it a shot tonight.

[Freevo-users] Switching CapsLock Right Control keys

2009-07-13 Thread Chris Jones
On a linux debian lenny box, I have freevo start up on vt9 at boot time.

After I the freevo main menu is displayed, I Alt+Ctrl+F1 back to the
linux console and startx to log into my regular environment. I am then
able to switch back and forth between the two environements by hitting
Alt+Ctrl+F7/F9 keys.

This suits me to a tee: lets me keep the multimedia environment and the
working environment totally separate and yet switch from one to the
other via a simple keyboard action, even better than if I had the luxury
or two machines.

One minor problem is that I have an xmodmap tweak that swaps the right
Control keys with CapsLock on vt7.

So I have to fight my muscle memory when I'm on the freevo desktop and I
need to switch to the other desktop.

What's a clean way to add the xmodmap tweak to the freevo standalone
startup scripts? 

Thanks,

CJ
