Hi<br>
<br>
I'm running VDR-1.6.0 and vdr-xine on my Fedora 6 box, and am moving into<br>
Fedora 9.<br>
<br>
I've always had problems with a lack of real understanding on window<br>
managers, so have put up with GDM under Fedora 6, but Fedora 9 has some real<br>
nasty "clever" stuff that just simply needs disabling.<br>
<br>
Can anyone suggest a howto, or can guide me on how to circumvent this<br>
entirely? Basically I need to:<br>
<br>
1) auto log into 'vdruser'<br>
2) start xine<br>
<br>
That's it. Everything else is done behind the scenes, and I can handle.<br>
<br>
Can anyone help?</blockquote><div>I've moved from Fedora8 to Fedora10beta using GNOME 2 weeks ago, beside the autologin that have to be configured in gdm config file instead of a menu you probably used there is no much differences in the process. Search for "gdm autologin" in google, I don't have access to my Linux machine right now.<br>
xine can be started from .bashrc<br><br>If you don't have a strong machine you should probably consider another windows manager since GNOME and KDE are resource hungry.<br><br> <br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;">

Thanks<br>
