[mythtv-users] Segmentation Fault running mythfrontend/mythtv-setup

This is a little odd.

Setting up a new frontend.  When I try to run mythfrontend or mythtv-setup
from it, it will seg fault right after "Switching to square mode (Retro)"
where it should display "Using the Qt painter".

Now, the strange thing is that if I ssh in and run either of those programs
with X11 Forwarding on, they both run fine.  It's only when I run it on the
same box it seg faults.

Any ideas?

Here is the actual mythfrontend output ...

Oh, I just noticed one difference between here and the ssh version, the ssh
version says "DPMS is not supported".  But that's not it, just did an xset
-dpms and the same thing happened.
