Comment:

 traceback appears to be on mmx functions.  I think this is a system
 problem. perhaps your kernel is not configured correctly or mythtv is not
 compiled with the correct options. i have a dual-core frontend and dual
 core dev laptop. both of which have no issues when i select cpu = 2, and
 this is my default setting.

 unless someone else reports the same issue, i'm going to mark this as a
 worksforme.  I had problems once on my dual core frontend when I compiled
 mythtv with the pentiumpro option by mistake instead of pentium4 (32bit
 kernel). opengl vsync stopped working properly causing all sorts of hangs
 and lockups. when i compiled it with the correct cpu type, everything
 works like a champ.
