Just wondering if anyone here had a full systemd setup and XBMC running on it. So far, I have gotten XBMC autologin to work on systemd, but it fails to connect to D-Bus, so I cannot suspend/shutdown/reboot/hibernate.
Arch Linux will somewhere in the future be switching to systemd, so I am migrating my systems, but the D-Bus thing is proving a particular PITA.

Wow, thanks. That is one hefty systemd file. I use autologin as well now on the traditional init system, I'll give your stuff a shot.

If you use lightdm or other DE, you can setup auto-login through it and it will register you with consolekit/policykit/dbus
You can possibly setup xrandr and keyboard layouts with scripts.

That's why I leave it to lightdm to autologin to the XBMC session. Lightdm will take care of whatever ck, polkit, d-bus requirements there are and additionally you can setup displays, touchpad, etc with lightdm scripts because it would be harder to do in console before XBMC is started.
