You can switch windows to gdb (or run gdb from an ssh sessio) and hit
control+c where it sits waiting to get a gdb prompt so you can get
a backtrace.

First off, do you have blink installed?  You will need that from
the xbox-linux project.  I must put up a binary of this on the
downloads page there if there is enough demaand.

I run a simple shell script that executes mythfrontend, runs
'blink ooon' to set the led to slowly flashing orange, followed
by a sleep 1.  This then loops so if I killall mythfrontend, the
led changes and then mythfrontend is restarted.  When myth sets
the led to green or red depending on the backend's status.
