[mythtv-users] xfce4 mythfrontend autostart

Does this setup avoid showing the desktop loadup then starting mythfrontend?

I setup autologin and then used gnome's auto startup function (will have to 
dig up what it was but found it searching around for a similar task to 
windows startup folder)....... but it has to load the desktop, then load the 
app on top which is a bit ugly. Trying to remove the wife ugliness factor by 
limiting what is seen at bootup!

It would be nicer to make this more look like a 'blackbox'.

Regards,


BC.
