[mythtv-users] Still no mythwelcome!

Hi Paul and the rest of the list,
This is getting stranger by the minute. The following things work:
* "/usr/bin/mythwelcome -v all" typed on an xterm in X
* "/usr/bin/mythwelcome -v database" typed on an xterm in X
probaby, other verouse levels work ok too, but I have not tried them all...
The following things do NOT work:
* "/usr/bin/mythwelcome" typed on an xterm in X
* "/usr/bin/mythwelcome -v none" typed on an xterm in X
* "/usr/bin/mythwelcome -v all &" included in my .xsessionrc
* "/usr/bin/xterm - e '/usr/bin/mythwelcome -v all ' &" included in my
.xsessionrc
These all freeses the screen and gives me no access to X what so ever,
except I may kill it with CTRL-ALT-BACKSPACE.
The log file produced from the last command, captured using the 2>&1
facility of bash,
is included below. I think this is SO STRANGE!
Any ideas?
Having to manually type 'mythwelcome -v database' on every startup
does not render a very high WAF for the promising program
mythwelcome.....
