6. XFree86
To boot up into XFree86, grab and install the normal XFree packages.
Grab and install the XF86Config file from http://www.compsoc.man.ac.uk/~falken/T1500/XF86Config.

linked from rc.4). Change 'mplayer' on line 5 to your username.
#! /bin/sh
case "$1" in
start)
echo -n "Automatically logging into X"
su -c 'cd ~mplayer && xinit -- -bpp 16' - mplayer &
echo "."
;;
stop|restart)
;;
*)
echo "Usage: /etc/init.d/mplayer {start|stop|restart}"
exit 1
esac
exit 0 |
