[mythtv-users] defunct mythfrontend children processes

[Johnny Walker]

ok - I went ahead and reverted to what's in svn - and then manually
applied the following two patches

mythtv-7135-close_qprocess_before_return.patch
mythtv-7135-remove_dev_not_found_check.patch

compiled and installed - no luck :

 1521 ?        Ssl    0:00 /usr/local/bin/mythfrontend
 1612 ?        Z      0:00  \_ [mythfrontend] <defunct>
 1615 ?        Z      0:00  \_ [mythfrontend] <defunct>
 1617 ?        Z      0:00  \_ [mythfrontend] <defunct>

I'll revert and test just the mythtv-7135-remove_dev_not_found_check.patch now.
