I have installed XBMC media center on my Ubuntu Hardy. It works like a charm. I just need to do a few more tweeks to have the perfect setup.
I have 2 screens (computer and TV) with a NVIDIA 8600gt video card in Seperate X screens mode.
I would like XBMC to automatically open on the TV screen(second screen) when I start my computer. For the automatic start I know I have to go in the Session settings. But I dont know how to have XMBC open directly on the second screen TV
Here's what I found in the XBMC read me file:
Could anyone explain to me how I use these instructions. Where do I go to set the environment variable SDL_VIDEO_FULLSCREEN_HEAD ?If you have a multi-monitor setup and you want to run XBMC fullscreen
only on one monitor, then make sure to set the environment variable
SDL_VIDEO_FULLSCREEN_HEAD to the display no. which you want to use.
For e.g. "SDL_VIDEO_FULLSCREEN_HEAD=1 ./xbmc.bin" to tell XBMC
to use display no.1.
