I used yum to install the themes that seemed to be missing for some 
reason (most of them if not all).  After that I tried to run mythfronted 
again with the same error.

So I tried to start mythfrontend with the -0 Theme=default.

 When I try this, I get errors on most if not all themes that they are 
missing the themeinfo.xml file. it goes down to square and then seg faults.

My install is via atrpms and yum.  I was going to try removing 
mythtv-theme*, but that wants to remove  most if not all mythtv files 
and I was afraid that would screw stuff up even more when I 
reinstalled.  What do you think?  Should I go ahead and remove all the 
themes and then just reinstall?

Thanks
