[mythtv-users] Mythwelcome freezes

[German Rodriguez]

I guess something similar happened to me, what I did was to delay the start
of X for 10 seconds, also, how are you starting mythwelcome, there's a flag
on mythfrontend that tells it to start mythwelcome instead of
mythfrontend.real I think that's the right way to do it, I modified my X
startup file to run mythwelcome instead of mythfrontend and I run kind into
the same problems you have.
