[mythtv-users] Issues with mythfrontend

[Chris Poole]

Thanks,
I'm not entirely sure what has or hasn't been updated, but it's been
happening since I installed stock Mythbuntu 9.04 from the disc (with only
updates being official Ubuntu updates from their repos).

In any case, there is no /usr/bin/udevinfo to symlink to, so I don't think
it's the same problem.

Does sound similar though.

Thanks,
Chris
