I have a sneaky suspicion that something is wrong with my install. KDE is doing some weird things, such as I cannot maximize windows parked on the panel. I cannot atm be sure of where the problem lies. Here's the latest news. I took a copy of a July 2 or so git clone (v0.26-pre-757-ge2a0efd) which runs perfectly here, home and compiled that. It barfs there (on fedora 17 w 3.4.4.3.) I am running F16 w 3.4.0-0.rc5.git2.1.fc18 here at work. Trolling through the logs, I saw one funny message in dmesg. (Significant? No idea.) Then mythtv-setup could not find the dvb adapter although I could azap tune it, and cat from it cleanly both before and after attempting setup. And the compile was done after a reboot: I was testing the tuners first. Then mythtv-setup borked with the 'empty' error. After that the frontend does the same thing but only as soon as I enter 'Upcoming Recordings' and the system attempts to populate the screen: that particular mysql query triggers it. Note that that does NOT happen on the desktop here and the other database-data populated screens throughout myth work fine, as does the status page. The tuners appear there too. Also at home I cannot schedule recordings. Here, works fine. So again, I pulled a git clone late last night. when I built that brand spanking new git v0.26-pre-899-g1316335, it crashed severely on frontend startup ( see new-error which is something else I think). So I think there is more than the mysql communication error going on.(BTW, mysql was completely unaffected and I could use the console without difficulty throughout my testing.) So I am thinking that I have some other error going on. I am going to re-install fedora and I may just go for an rpm install from atrpms in order to get this up and running again (Yes the database will be a bitch! Worst case, I hand delete some columns from a couple of tables to get back to 1295 or whatever.) So, no backtraces at the moment, although I would appreciate any pointers on how anyone thinks I should trace this. Run gdb against both the backend and the frontend? Should I also try that against mysqld?? Geoff
