Comment (by yurko@…):

 Just updated Fixes, updated OS to centos 6.2 and re-compiled.

 No  Joy, same problem.  After MythFRONTEND starts up i try to navigate
 left or right in the menu soon after i get.

 2011-12-27 06:16:51.178 Found mainmenu.xml for theme 'Terra'
 2011-12-27 06:16:51.436 MythCoreContext: Connecting to backend server:
 127.0.0.1:6543 (try 1 of 1)
 2011-12-27 06:16:58.460 MythSocket(1a70030:33): readStringList: Error,

                         The response to MYTH_PROTO_VERSION was empty.
                         This happens when the backend is too busy to
 respond,
                         or has deadlocked in due to bugs or hardware
 failure.

 I will produce step by step directions how to replicate this problem.
 Seems my problem occurs like CLOCKWORK rightaway ( no need to wait at all
 )

 also i noticed in PS i see
