I'm not a Mythbuntu user so I cannot answer questions on that. My
MythTV FE/BE runs on openSUSE with a KDE3.5 desktop. I can right click
on the icon in the GUI's menu and get a new menu that allows me to
edit the start command. That is where you can add the redirect;
however, Mythbuntu may already be logging the frontend.
