Hi Schaze

I use Ubuntu 10.04 Lucid Lynx with Myth TV 0.23 installed on it. Myth TV is setup with backend, mysql and frontend on the the same machine.
so i guess i can apply botherless the fix  that you kindly advised.

Finally  i could get the Myth Backend log and it looks like this:

                        Perhaps you should re-read the installation instructions?

my TV card is a Kwolrd terminator Phillips 7134 chipset,  iam sure the driver is correctly installed since i can see live tv on Myth TV (once i restart the backend) and i can see TV on  TVtime.
It seems Myth Backend can connect on time with database but is unnable to start the TV Card. Am I Right?

Thanxs a lot in advance for your advice.

Figoza.

Status in “mythtv” package in Ubuntu: Triaged

Bug description:
Binary package hint: mythbuntu-common

I upgraded mythbuntu to 9.10.  Now when I boot, mythwelcome is unable to connect to mysql and comes with a setup dialog. (first screen is choosing the language.) Starting mythwelcome or mythfrontend manually from a terminal works fine, since at that point mysql and mythtv-backend have started. 

I tried delaying the start of mythwelcome in /usr/share/mythtv/mythfrontend.sh. I got it so far that mythwelcome only complains about not finding mythbackend. 
My suspicion is that mythwelcome/mythfrontend start before mysql, mythbackend and/or lircd are correctly started. Either those should be started earlier, or the script that starts mythwelcome/mythfrontend should actively check for those.

If any other information is needed, please let me know.

P.S. possibly mythbuntu-common is not the appropriate package, but it is definitely a mythbuntu setup problem.
