[mythtv-users] HELP ! Mythtv core dumps after upgrade to 0.21 and Ubuntu 8.04

[Paolo Asioli]

Hi all.

After upgrading to Ubuntu 7.04 I started having problems with DVB-T 
recordings (they were slightly damaged) on Mythtv 0.20.

So I upgraded again to Ubuntu 8.04, which comes with Mythtv 0.21.

But now I always get a core dump when launching mythtv-setup! I also 
tried deleting the DB to let it recrate it (thiking that it may be the 
DB upgrade process but with no improvement.

Here is the output from
mythtv-setup.real -v all

My system is based on VIA Eden 600MHz (it's a 586, as for the CPU features).

Can anyone help me or at least point me in the right direction ?

Thank you very much.

Best regards,
