[mythtv-users] Delaying frontend start

Hi,
I would like to know if there some built-in means to delay the start
of mythfrontend, or to set a higher timeout when trying to connect to
the backend.
Reason is, I am running Mythbuntu, so mythbackend is started through
Sys-V init, the frontend through autologin and the desktop managers's
(xfce) autostart feature. This is a combined box. Since the box is
connected through wlan, the IP address that the backend is bind to is
usually up *after* the frontend started, so the frontend is
complaining that it can't connect to the backend. I want to avoid that
warning at the frontend start, so if a delay or longer timeout is not
possible, I would also be happy with an option to turn the warning
off. But I couldn't find either of these.
I may start the frontend from if-up, but I would prefer a myth-native
solution.
Jan.
