It seems that if I change .mythtv/mysql.txt to use localhost instead
of 192.168.1.2 then I can run mythfrontend.

#DBHostName=192.168.1.2
DBHostName=localhost
DBUserName=mythtv
DBPassword=mythtv
DBName=mythconverg
DBType=QMYSQL3


Is this additional evidence of some sort of databse crash?

Thanks,
Mark
