Just finished installing MythBuntu 10.04, with MythTV version 0.23.20100314-1, AKA branches/release-0-23-fixes, or version 24158.

Part of the problem related to this bug is that the frontend configuration dialog (exact path is "Utilities/Setup" -> "Setup" -> "General") now does not provide text entry boxes to specify commands to execute for Halt command and Reboot command.

These used to be available to allow hibernation command to be substituted for shutdown, for example.

Need way to (more information?) tell Dbus to hibernate instead of shutdown or restore these text entry boxes to the setup dialog and honor the command inserted there, defaulting to Dbus operation if the text box entry is blank.

Current workaround is to exit mythfrontend into MythWelcome (how mythfrontend got launched in the first place), and then use the configured option to call hibernate instead of shutdown to end current session.

Fugly, but it works. Would much rather be able to leave mythfrontend running and suspend to disk for quicker start up and not have to fumble around to get mythfrontend going after resume from disk suspend.
