[Bug 642992] [NEW] 10.04 Frontend-only install: no logs are output to /var/log/mythtv
Public bug reported:
After performing a stock install of the current 10.04 distribution of
Mythbuntu with a frontend-only configuration, there was no
/var/log/mythtv folder created (and consequently no logs ever written to
it), after multiple sessions using mythtv and multiple reboots. Other
strange symptoms are that the theme that loads in mythfrontend is the
terra theme rather than the Mythbuntu theme, the first menu screen often
gets stuck just drawing the background without ever showing any of the
menu options and then crashing with a (presumed, since I have no log)
segfault after a few minutes, and if it does get past this point and
render the menu options, it will crash about 10 minutes later (still no
logs to share with what error it crashes). This bug is intended to be
about the lack of logging and not the crashing (I don't want to start
trying to troubleshoot the crashing until I have reliable logging) but I
wanted to mention the related symptoms for context. The network
connection is reliable and it is up at the time that mythfrontend is
starting.
This is on a box with an Intel Atom 410PT mainboard using VGA out.
