Quote:@CurlyMo: what is the meaning of "console=tty2" in this file? Does the XBMC run on tty2? I have changed this to tty1 for my purposes, but do not known, what impact this has...

This will output all kernel messages to tty2 instead of tty1 (aka the tv).

Quote:After this i modified /etc/inittab such way, that is does an autologin with mingetty to user xbian (apt-get install mingetty) and added a little loop to .bashrc, which waits for the user to wiggle the mouse and awake the keyboard. I am at office right now and have no access to give the sample script. Will do in the evening.

You don't have to install anything, just change the appropriate line to:

Code:

#1:2345:respawn:/sbin/getty 38400 tty1

1:2345:respawn:/bin/login -f xbian tty1 </dev/tty1 >/dev/tty1 2>&1/g

It would be great if you can turn this into an proper script that we can implement.
