Ratpoison is a lightweight window manager that is designed to require very little interaction with your mouse, hence the amusing name. That and the fact it also provides fullscreen windows with no decorations makes it ideally suited to a Myth FE system.
A simple .xsession
for ratpoison and mythtv
ratpoison & mythfrontend
A simple ~/.ratpoisonrc
#Make escape (default C-t) not clash with mythTV key bindings escape C-r #Banish the mouse cursor out of the way. addhook switchwin banish
External player commands may need some help to get mythfrontend fully focused on exit. eg.
xine <options> %s ; ratpoison -c focus
