Hi there,<br><br>I've just read there is a bug in myth using the command I was using. Instead if I try DISPLAY=":0.1" mythfrontend this works!<br><br>Next problem which isn't really myth related is if I add this line into the list of startup programs in System>Sessions>Startup Programs (Ubuntu) it seems to do nothing and for some strange reason doesn't start myth on boot yet the same command works from the command line.
<br><br>What is /etc/innittab, can someone explain how I would edit this to get myth to start on my second screen on login?<br><br>Mant thanks<br><br>Dom<br><br><div><span class="gmail_quote">On 05/06/06, <b class="gmail_sendername">
