I'm not sure if this is the best place to ask, but it's kind of a cross between HomeGenie setup and integration with Ubuntu, so I hope I can get some good input or at least pointed in the right direction.



I installed HomeGenie (an open source home automation project) on my server, but I don't quite get the behind the scenes feel I'm looking for. I have to navigate to the HomeGenie directory and run sudo mono HomeGenie.exe to run the program. At this point the program works great for my purposes, however, my terminal is tied up with output from HomeGenie as it is used. If I interrupt (ctrl + c) the program exits.



I'm looking for a cleaner integration/install. I'd also like to set the program to start on boot. I'm using a headless server, so everything is done via command line.

as we solved this in the HomeGenie forum, I'm sharing the solution also here.
I added a note on Running HomeGenie as a Background Service at the end of Getting Started documentation page:
