So, how can I get xmms to startup on boot? I'm using a 350Mhz 64Mb RAM 16Gb HD Frugal install for a media box.

Open Emelfm and click on the 'H' button in the upper left hand corner of the left pane showing the /home/dsl directory ('H' button toggles to see or not the hiden files). Scroll down to the .xinitrc file and choose 'Edit' from the Emelfm button menu. Add the line:

xmms

Save and exit the file and you should be all set.

xmms & is the command, to be picky about it, and it should be added above the last section which starts the window manager.
