You didn't do anything wrong.  And I'm not sure why it's kicking you back out.   In
my case, I run XDM and use Enlightenment as the window manager.  With both
being defined in /etc/rc.conf.

Mythfrontend does run fine with that combo.

One thing I note is the backend is still telling you that mythsetup hasn't been run to
attach a channel to the port and to the rest of the setup.  That step is not detailed in
the wiki.  You need to assign the those via mythsetup, before running the front end

Surf to - http://mythtv.org/docs/mythtv-HOWTO-9.html and scroll down to jusr
passed the STOP sign, and work through - Mythtv-setup.
