Ahh, I have not tried with xinerama off.
I have been out of town for work and have not done any more troubleshooting.

I did a dist upgrade from 6.10 to 7.04 and the myth frontend broke.
The backend still works after I upgraded the IVTV driver as shows are still
piling up on the HD and I can watch them with VLC.
MythTV frontend and backend worked properly before the upgrade.

I will have to try and see if I can make any progress on sunday

good luck.
