[mythtv-users] Frontend exits to login screen

[James C. Dastrup]

>>I am running Mythtv on Fedora 4 using gdm to auto-login.  I followed the instructions described in the 
>>MythTv Wiki ( http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/index.php/Frontend_Auto_Login <http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/index.php/Frontend_Auto_Login> ) using Option 1.  My system 
>>starts up great, logs in and starts Mythfrontend.  The problem is that if I manually exit the frontend, kill the 
>>frontend from a remote terminal, or the frontend crashes, it reverts back to the gdm login screen.   I would 
>>like to be able to use my remote to restart the frontend or have a script that automaticall restarts it if it 
>>crashes, but obviously I get thwarted by the fact that I have to login again.  I have searched the list and 
>>haven't seen anyone with the same problem.  I've had this problem with the last few fresh installs I've 
>>done...  anyone have any ideas?

Try http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/index.php/Frontend_Loading_Script

You can use this in conjunction with your method, just run this script instead of mythfrontend.
