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: camille ~ # mythbackend 2011-10-26 09:15:05.625 mythbackend version: branches/release-0-23-fixes [27077] www.mythtv.org 2011-10-26 09:15:05.626 Using runtime prefix = /usr 2011-10-26 09:15:05.626 Using configuration directory = /root/.mythtv 2011-10-26 09:15:05.626 Unable to read configuration file mysql.txt 2011-10-26 09:15:05.626 Empty LocalHostName. 2011-10-26 09:15:05.626 Using localhost value of camille 2011-10-26 09:15:05.636 New DB connection, total: 1 2011-10-26 09:15:05.641 Connected to database 'mythconverg' at host: localhost 2011-10-26 09:15:05.641 Closing DB connection named 'DBManager0' 2011-10-26 09:15:05.642 Connected to database 'mythconverg' at host: localhost 2011-10-26 09:15:05.654 Current MythTV Schema Version (DBSchemaVer): 1254 2011-10-26 09:15:05.658 MythBackend: Running as a slave backend. 2011-10-26 09:15:05.673 mythbackend: MythBackend started as a slave backend 2011-10-26 09:15:05.674 New DB connection, total: 2 2011-10-26 09:15:05.675 Connected to database 'mythconverg' at host: localhost 2011-10-26 09:15:05.684 New DB connection, total: 3 2011-10-26 09:15:05.688 Connected to database 'mythconverg' at host: localhost 2011-10-26 09:15:05.796 MediaServer:: Loopback address specified - 127.0.0.1.

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! -Michael Sullivan-
