[mythtv-users] Fedora Core 6 and KDE autorun CD/DVD

I know this is not a Myth problem, but I figure someone has run into 
this. When I pop a DVD in KDE's cool little "What would you like to do" 
menu comes up, promptly stealing mythfrontend's focus and rendering my 
remote control useless. So I must get my lazy bum up off the couch and 
go hit the escape on the keyboard hidden behind my TV.

Everything I google tells me to remove 
$HOME/.kde/Autostart/autorun.desktop. Even Jarod's Fedora/MythTV Howto 
says this is how to fix this problem. Except I don't have that file. The 
only thing in my KDE Autostart folder is my myth-load.sh script.

Surely this is an easy fix. I actually want Myth to monitor CD/DVD 
activity and have that option checked in Setup -> General, then I have 
my preference set in the DVD options as to what I want it to do on load. 
But that never happens, I assume because KDE is taking over.

Thanks Mike
