If you have an XBMC option, are you sure it's not actually Kodi? Or do you mean adding an entry for Kodi from Guix to the display manager? In the latter case, you can try to locate the "XBMC.desktop" file and adjust the Exec line to be /var/guix/profiles/.../bin/kodi. Not sure how Trisquel does it, but keep in mind that running Kodi without a window manager is not supported upstream. I believe official support for this was slated for version 18, but I don't know if the snapshot in Guix contains this code. FWIW, in the past I've run Kodi as a dedicated user, with a minimal window manager configuration that simply starts Kodi on login. --=-=-= Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQEzBAEBCgAdFiEEu7At3yzq9qgNHeZDoqBt8qM6VPoFAloRqisACgkQoqBt8qM6 VPqLSggAzt2k25q5uQhZXDUeTH9bpXa1ukvZX2t01QmCRXui7xyzURJHPaqQRf5u K78XQJ/skJzlGAqkQgRZ9481RVSsU8dXHv/5wd8F6SA7OFe+OgC6wQuM5c0W5Sad qzP8mvrPeG3brsAHLM62EgOIbYJ5ypyZgydIjurZGK5Xa2amBG7PogrsALld+Jvc Dsur39OiiDa3ruyGQjy6xX17hNrhvtCrd+dEjWupercXmUTNSwZZvDmvzIhgPnZD KQyDKWbECquNlynTCPqZDX4vkL57q4Ru1zNqpWqqunbd2ETRcmbMmpXfLUSBsI1+ Pt20Tvknw52V/v6vj1xvJgEQCeaP0g== =Ydpr -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --=-=-=--
