I dont know if this is the same, or a related error, but
everything was running fine for me until about two weeks ago, when I did an
update.
since then, almost as soon as I start running mythfrontend, the screen goes
black,
and I drop out of X11 (gnome).
The log from mythfrontend says

mythfrontend: Fatal IO error: client killed
which doesnt give me any hints as to what could be wrong.
The only line added to the backend.log (after the frontend has been started) is
ICE default IO error handler doing an exit(), pid = 25375, errno = 0
I have done a number of updates since the time of the error (one just now,
Friday afternoon at 1430MST) hoping that the problem would have been
fixed, but no luck.
Anyone else seeing anything similar?
Why me?
