[mythtv-users] Problem with wife-friendly feature

[Jason Ramey]

Precisely, you would want to launch irexec as the user running myth. I 
just have irexec -d ~/.mythtv/lircrc in my .xsession before I execute 
mythfrontend and fluxbox. The .kde/AutoStart symlink wasn't working 
because your lircrc wasn't anywhere that irexec would look for it by 
default.
