I don't know. I'm not all that familiar with this stuff, especially since
things have been changing recently (like upstart). If he's got a default
Mythbuntu install then mythtv-backend is an upstart job. You could write
another upstart job that does the checking loop, and then modify the
mythtv-backend job to depend on that one (ie add it to "start on" stanza).
Writing the upstart job is easy - I have one in there that calls the same
firewire primer script as my sleep/resume script does. In Kubuntu 8.04
there was an issue where the backend started before networking was fully
loaded and it never found my HDHomeRun. For that I just took the easy
route and put a "sleep 10" in the backend init script, so that would be
another easy option.
