[mythtv-users] Remote Frontend LiveTV failure after installing smbfs

[Andrew Cover]

   I have a frontend/backend machine that works, i recently installed
mythbuntu 8.04 on my laptop as a frontend only. Initially live tv worked
great, but I still needed to get my backend prerecorded data mounted to the
frontend. To that end I went into the update manager and brought the system
fully up to date, then downloaded smbfs from the repository. Once I mounted
the necessary network drives within the fstab and ran mount -a I started the
frontend again, now I had access to the whole backend including prerecorded
files, but could not start live tv. I searched around the internet and found
this "http://www.mythtv.org/pipermail/mythtv-users/2007-November/203175.html"
as it seemed similar to the problem i was having I thought to reinstall from
the original disk on which live tv worked.
   After reinstalling from scratch the frontend's live tv functionality
returned, but i needed to mount the network shares. I went to the terminal
and attempted to install smbfs but it returned 404 not found. so i opened
the update manager and clicked "check" but did not install any updates.
After closing the update manager I went back to the terminal and installed
smbfs. when the network shares were mounted once again I opened the
frontend, but once again the live tv functionality had disappeared. But now
i'm getting a different error report. I'm hoping that someone out there
knows what i'm doing wrong here. So here is the error report that I'm
getting currently I'd appreciate any insights.
