Question 
Hello!

Actually I managed to start Boxee under the XBMC Live (XBMC-Live 10.0 Dharma r35648) environment.
I made the following .sh scripts:

to start Boxee:
Code:
#!/bin/bash
killall xbmc.bin
xinit /opt/boxee/Boxee --standalone
to start XBMC:
Code:
#!/bin/bash
killall Boxee
xinit /usr/bin/xbmc --standalone

unfortunately the scripts do not work. Stare

But if I just type in the command line (connected over SSH into the XBMClive Box) killall xbmc.bin XBMC is closed and typing xinit /opt/boxee/Boxee --standalone (with or without --standalone and also tried with &) Boxee starts!! But with no sound. Thats still an issue!

for the other script for XBMC the same applies. XBMC starts just by typing the command directly to the command line but does not start using the .sh script!! Huh

So it seems that what I missed before was the "xinit" command! Confused

Another curious thing appears that after having started Boxee and killed it again going back (manually starting with xinit /usr/bin/xbmc) to XBMC I am not able to turn of the computer with the inbuilt shutdown command. I am redirected to the command prompt. Huh

Someone with an Idea how to run the .sh scripts?
