Description

This means configuring app manager to use a different launcher, namely videofe in kiosk mode. This will cause the boot to bring up videofe immediately instead of using the launcher for manual navigation.

This is in support using PiBox to auto-play videos on power-up with rear-projection on windows for the holidays.

It's also really easy:
  1. Modify the build of videofe to support adding an appmgr.cfg with "launcher=videofe -k".
  2. Modify the metabuild to include pkglist.autokiosk to build only the packages required.
