[mythtv-users] Menu GUI offset working?

Personally, I don't even use a WM.  Since I do all diagnostics from a
remote shell, I don't need to work with the machine. My .xinitrc is
something like:

/usr/bin/mythfrontend

.. and that's it.  Notice, no & at the end -- if mythfrontend dies
(but that never happens, no siree! ;) ), the user will log off, and,
since I have GDM auto-logging in the mythtv user, right back on.
