[mythtv-users] Strange problem in program guide

[Nick Fasano]

	Hello to everyone on this list.  First off, I want to say thanks to 
everyone involved with mythtv, especially Isaac for creating such an 
ambitious project and Jarod for providing the wonderful how-to.  I 
hadn't used Linux until I started assembling my mythbox about a month 
ago.  I have used Apple II's and Macs before them since I was 10 years 
old (I'm 29 now).  Mythtv is the most impressive program I have ever 
used, and it is far beyond any of the other PVR projects out there.  
The considerable time and effort invested in setting it up is well 
worth it.
	There is one problem that I'm running into, though.  I am having 
trouble navigating through the program guide with both my remote and my 
keyboard.  I can navigate just fine in other sections of myth, but when 
I press 'm' to get to the program guide, the remote no longer works for 
navigation.  The strange thing is that the keyboard still does work, 
but I have to hold the keys down for a second or two for anything to 
happen.  At that point, I get multiple keypresses, presumably from the 
repeat key function.  Even stranger, I'm having this weird problem in 
the KDE interface - when I select a menu such as the redhat menu in the 
lower left corner, it's like something is always trying to select the 
topmost item.  For a millisecond I can select other items when I move 
the mouse, but the instant the mouse becomes stationary, the topmost 
menu item is selected again.  It's as if something else is producing 
input to the mouse or, more likely, the keyboard.  I'm pretty sure this 
is the same problem that's affecting the program guide.  Removing the 
keyboard and mouse doesn't help, either.  I am truly stumped, so I 
thought I'd post the problem here to see if anyone has seen this 
before, and to say hi to the group.  I am using Fedora Core 1, pretty 
much following Jarod's guide.

Thanks,
Nick
