</div>If you run:<br>
<br>
file /usr/bin/mythfrontend<br>
<br>
you'll find that Ubuntu renames mythfrontend binary and puts a script<br>
called mythfrontend in its place. The mythfrontend script sets up the<br>
environment properly (so you have a proper HOME directory and<br>
configuration to allow mythfrontend to run properly), then runs the<br>
binary--which they call mythfrontend.real.<br>
<br>
So, you need to set up a proper environment, then redo the same thing<br>
you've done, but using /usr/bin/mythfrontend.real as the application name.<br>
