Bug Description
tpb doesn't start from its init script /etc/init.d/tpb
invoking sudo /etc/init.d/tpb start at terminal starts the daemon
the script itself runs at startup, i checked it by adding an echo after tpb -d
for now, i had to add /usr/bin/tpb to the sudoers file, so i can run it at session start (dirty)
maybe there's a dependency what's not met at the time the script runs?
according to http://
there is a closed bug ( https:/
i don't know if it was really fixed then, but if yes, now it's broken again.

The reason that it won't run from startup is because the OSD is on by default. OSD needs an X display and tpb dies saying it can't open display. You would think that it would be as simple as following the instructions in the manual.
-o, --osd=STATE
Show on-screen display for volume, mute and brightness. Possi‐
ble values are on and off. Default is on.
Unfortunately for some reason turning it to off doesn't actually shut it off. Looks like there is something in the code that is forcing this to always be on. Hopefully if you can recompile it so that it is possible to turn it off, it will no longer bomb because it will no longer need the X display to run.
