Hi,

I've just recently had a problem with mythfrontend restarting X whenever 
it quits or restarts i.e. when changing a theme or appearance setting or 
when first starting mythfrontend and setting up the address and 
passwords. This happens in gnome, in openbox which is my preferred 
window manager for running mythfrontend it restarts X when mythfrontend 
is launched. Up until yesterday, it was all running perfectly smoothly 
for 3 months with none of these issues at all.

I'm using Ubuntu Edgy and I do run updates, I suspect it may be an 
update to qt or kde that caused the problem, but I have no clue how to 
go about fixing it. (I would prefer not to have to reinstall ubuntu.)

I've checked the log entry and there's nothing suspicuous just entries 
like this (I've obscured my domain name)

Any ideas?
