[mythtv-users] Auto-start mythfrontend

What's the right way to auto-start mythfrontend at boot time?

Ideally, it would restart X if X dies, and it would restart mythfrontend
if it dies.  (Then I could hit ctrl-alt-backspace to reset it if things
go really haywire.)

I'm thinking of playing with the xdm scripts, but I expect there's
already a good solution (or several).  (And if there's a good solution
that everyone likes, it would be nice to have it in the
documentation--please point me at it if I simply missed it.)

(I'm running Gentoo, but I don't mind adapting scripts if something
works well on another system.)

Thanks!
