I currently have an excellent setup of ubuntu 12.04 and XBMC
Everything is working perfectly!
I installed monit and have it monitoring various services on the box
I would like it to monitor XBMC - other services are easy - you just check for a pid and restart however the way my system works is it auto logs on to the XBMC user on startup - subsiquently starting XBMC (think it uses lightdm not xorg)
I found this http://gitorious.org/xbmc-monit - but im not sure its what im after
I would like monit to check xbmc's process status - if dead log out and log back in - or can I just kill the process and start it again
anyone got any experiance with that?
