Hi Guys

Wonder if you can help here, I run XBMX on my Ubuntu Jaunty media center and ive got it to start up with XBMC as the default session (as per official instructions) which is fine. However in order to exit to the desktop i have to logout and change sessions which isnt very family friendly. What I want to do is get the system to boot up in the ubuntu desktop as normal and then run XBMC, this means that when I exit XBMC it goes back to the desktop so the media center can be used as a normal pc. How can I do this?

Regards

Joe
Bump?
Change the default sessions to a regular Window Manager like GNOME, or KDE, and then have XBMC Autostart through the Window Manager.
