Buttons in "Mythbuntu" theme disappear on startup.

[Nils Grimsmo]

This happens about one in three times when I start `mythfrontend`, with no pattern I can deduce, except good and bad runs are slightly clustered.

When I use the "Mythbuntu" theme, the on-screen menu buttons (and the other artwork) disappears right after starting `mythfrontend`. Sometimes I catch a glimpse of them, sometimes I don't, and sometimes everything works fine. But if I go out of the menu system, for example to "Watch Live TV", the menus are visible when I come back.

I have not experienced this with any of the other themes.

I have now tested this in mythtv-trunk from SVN, where I do not experience this. If I uninstall, and run the ubuntu version, I get the same problem. The buttons dissapear, I see only the striped background, but navigating and using the menus work, as I end up "where I am supposed to" after pressing keys.

I also do not experience this with 22941 from mythtv-0-22 in SVN.

Note that the version of mythtv-theme-mythbuntu is 1:0.22.0~zrc1-0ubuntu2.

[Mario Limonciello (superm1)]

As you mention that this is fixed w/ r22941 from svn and we have a newer version already in the development version of Mythbuntu (Lucid Lynx), i'm going to mark this bug as fix released.

Anyone else who encounters this bug can use the Mythbuntu auto-builds (http://www.mythbuntu.org/auto-builds) to update to a newer version of MythTV or switch to a Lucid Lynx (10.04) or later.
