[mythtv-users] Can not see the menu

[Korey Fort]

You can start the frontend like this :
	 mythfrontend -O ThemePainter=qt

 Or you could set it in the database like: 
	use mythconverg; 
	UPDATE settings SET data="qt" WHERE value="ThemePainter";

"Let ye without segmentation fault cast the first int!"

Hi Mario,

I have a Nvidia FX5500, that supports opengl.

Since i can't see the menu, how can i revert to QT painter as a test?

Ultimatly i want to get opengl running for sure..

Alain
