Instructions for usage and configuration with init script vdr-x11 media-plugins/vdr-sofhddevice media-plugins/vdr-xineliboutput need a minimal X server We recommend to install a minimal X server by USE="minimal xorg" emerge x11-base/xorg-server -a Use-flag xorg is recommended! It is not part of this README how to get a working X install. Please refer for this to the depended xorg howto's. Is your X server setup finished, it is easy to start your X server with our provided init script /etc/init.d/vdr-x11. We add by default minimal variables to the initscript to start the X server. To fit your own setup, please refer to 'man xorg' It is simple to add your own variables by using /etc/conf.d/vdr --> Variable X11_SERVER= This will unset all default provided variables from the init script. There are only variables to add, without to call the x11 lib /usr/bin/X !!!
