Hello,

I've been running mythtv problem free for over a year. I've had to reboot occasionally, but generally no problems.

About a week ago, I rebooted, and the front end never came up. I checked the logs, and found the info below, hence the email.

I'm running an Athlon XP-based system, and nvidia video card (i can find the model if it's important), and an Hauppage PVR 150, and 350. I'm using the tv-out of the 350 for display. I'm running Knoppmyth R5F27.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Cheers,
Scott

Hi Scott,

I have to ask: Why have you waited a week to ask for help??

Your frontend is probably not the source of the problem. Check the backend log before that. In fact, if the frontend didn't come up on my machine I would first ask:
What is the actual symptom? I.e. What do you see on your TV screen when the machine starts up?
Is mysql running?
Is mythbackend running?
What does /var/log/messages suggest?
Is your disk, or any part of it, full? "df -h" on the xterm

Await info

Mike

Hi Mike,

I waited a week because I was in Hawaii on my honeymoon :)

The TV screen doesn't show anything on startup.
The mythbackend log doesn't show anything out of order.
Mythbackend is running correctly, it's actually recording everything.
There's nothing that seems odd to me in the messages file.

the disk was moderately full, but I cleared a bunch of stuff. still doesn't work though.
