Hi Ollie,

That is exactly the same as I am getting. You'll find that same thing happens if you run Frontend or Setup. Are you running the Radeon drivers, or the ATI fglrx binary drivers?

What packages do you have installed? "apt-cache policy" with package names will tell you what is on there. Thats' what gives me the output :
xserver-xorg-video-all:
  Installed: 1:7.4~5ubuntu16
  Candidate: 1:7.4~5ubuntu16
  Version table:
 *** 1:7.4~5ubuntu16 0
        500 http://es.archive.ubuntu.com jaunty/main Packages
        100 /var/lib/dpkg/status

for example.

I might try downloading a clean Myth source soon and try compiling it myself. If that works it will be clear that something in the repos is screwed.
