I tested Mythtv frontend on my desktop system running a Jaunty Alpha 6 live CD and have the same problem, no fonts are displayed. This machine has an no common hardware with by laptop.

Steps to reproduce:
1) Boot from the live CD.
2) Enable Extra software sources.
3) Install sux and mythtv-frontend packages
4) dpkg-reconfigure mythtv-common (as it fails to install properly - will raise a new bug report).
5) Run "mythtvfrontend --service" and accept to be added as a new mythtv user (don't logout though)
6) Start a new shell using "sux - ubuntu" so the group changes take effect.
7) Run "mythtvfrontend --service"

Expected behaviour, get the configuration options. Full screen, text on blue background.
Actual behaviour, full screen blocks of colour but no text.
