I had a similar problem once upon a time. I am running Mythbuntu 9.04
and was installing updates through vnc. When I restarted the computer I
checked the box to save my session. When the system came back up I had
two instances of mythfrontend running. One from the saved session and
one from the startup script for the window manager. It took me a minute
to figure things out. That does not sound like your problem, but fyi for
others.
Cheers,
James
