Bug Description
Binary package hint: mythtv
Ubuntu jaunty (development branch)
Release: 9.04
mythtv-frontend:
Installed: 0.21.0+
Candidate: 0.21.0+
Version table:
*** 0.21.0+
500 http://
100 /var/lib/
Expect mythtv to launch and have visible text. Instead I have blocks of colour and no text.
mythtv front end has been working in Jaunty since I installed it a few weeks ago. At some stage during the last week, an update has broken the package for me. When I launch mythtv, I get a central black box where the loading text use to be, I can still see my desktop. The program hangs there and my desktop is unresponsive. When I hit ESC, the screen changes to a full screen grey box with a black central box. Below the black box is an orange bar and two more grey bars. I can use the arrow keys to move the orange bar down one bar and hit return; this causes the program to exit normally. It looks to me like I am just missing the text.
I have removed (and dpkg --purge) and reinstalled mythtv-frontend but the problem persists. I also deleted my $HOME/.mythtv directory. However, some configure files were left behind in /etc/mythtv; they are just the defaults plus the mysql password.
I have check bugs #93986 and #156983 and I believe they are not related; I did install/confirm I had installed the suggest fonts just in case but I still have the problem.
I do not have compiz active and no other application are acting strange; 3d games etc are fine.
This machine is a Thinkpad X31 with "ATI Technologies Inc Radeon Mobility M6 LY" graphics.
I have attached the output when run from a terminal using "mythfrontend --service"

I've just tried the live CD version of Jaunty alpha-6 on the same machine and I have a similar problem with what I presume is the set-up screen - no fonts just the background colours. I also tried the Jaunty alpha-6 image in a virtual-box virtual machine on my desktop (completely different hardware) and the same happens there too. Tomorrow I'll reboot my desktop from live CD and see how that goes.....
