Thanks

 I put this in the $HOME/GNUstep/Library/WindowMaker/autostart
 /usr/bin/X11/xset -dpms s off    (To kill the screensaver)
 /usr/local/bin/irxevent &
 /usr/local/bin/mythfrontend &

And it works fine.  System autologins and starts up Mythfrontend.   This
should definitely go in the FAQ.

Now to going to try to bind a lirc button to the shutdown -h now
command.
