Hi all

I am building a car pc and using XBMC. I have got iGo navigation working with wine, but is there a way to run it within XBMC?

There is this guy who has done it (as seen in screenshot)

I have tried Advanced Launcher but it will run wine in a separate window. How can i make it run in XBMC?

It looks like he is running the navigation in the background using:
DISPLAY=:99 wine iGO831_PC_110206.exe &

then using xvfbd to display it when user clicks navigation button
/etc/rc.d/xvfbd start

how does xvfbd work like that?

So did you figure it out? Or does anyone have any ideas?

From the German example I provided above, I am pretty sure he is running the wine window (his nav) as "onTop" so that when it is launched (when nav button clicked), the window goes on top of XBMC. He has left out a bit at the bottom of the screen so you can still see the bottom part of XBMC in the background, So it just "looks like" it is integrated. I'm not sure why he mentions xvfbd. Sorry to disappoint.

I'm pretty sure thats whats going on here.
