Subject: [gentoo-user] Mythtv problems
Date: Wed, 26 Oct 2011 09:23:30 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <4EA817E2.8050701@gmail.com> (raw)

I've been having Mythtv problems for the last two or three days, and
everything I've tried to fix it has only made things worse.  To start, a
little info:

camille ~ # emerge -pv mythtv

These are the packages that would be merged, in order:

Calculating dependencies... done!
[ebuild   R    ] media-tv/mythtv-0.23.1_p27077  USE="alsa css dbus dvb
jack lirc mmx perl python tiff (-altivec) -autostart -debug -directv
-faad -fftw -ieee1394 -lcd -pulseaudio -vdpau -xvmc"
VIDEO_CARDS="-nvidia -via" 0 kB

Total: 1 package (1 reinstall), Size of downloads: 0 kB

Mythtv has worked on camille since I first installed it in 2005.  Mythtv
worked the last time I started it (Oct 12), but I restarted it on the
24th and it didn't.  When I start mythfrontend, the list of Upcoming
Recordings is empty, when I go to Programme Finder it's empty, as is
Program Guide.  Previously Recorded works fine, as are Current
recordings but Watch TV doesn't - it says Please wait... for a long time
and then drops me back at the menu screen.  Of course by this time
mythfrontend is usually griping about not being connected to the
backend.  I ran mythbackend at the terminal prompt to find out why.
Here's what it said:

Segmentation fault


At first I thought that sometime that installed since Oct 12 was causing
the segfault, so I tried unmerging the 350+ packages that had installed
since then and listing them in package.mask, but that blew up in my face
because I don't know a command that forces portage to ignore masked
packages and install next-highest stable versions.  Please help me!
