[mythtv-users] shuttling woes/crashes

[Robert Denier]

I don't know your back/frontend setup, but if your running the frontend
as root, then run it as an ordinary user.  Ordinary users shouldn't be
able to crash the system...  If they frontend thread hangs on the system
you should then be able to either alt-f2 and type 
'killall mythfrontend' or ssh in and kill it that way.. etc

For that matter trying to run the frontend on another pc may help
isolate the problem..
