[mythtv-users] .24 mythbuntu daily builds repo

[Josh White]

Hi all,

 Not a fun time for me in myth land.  Hearing all the good news and relative
few horror stories, I decided to upgrade to .24 from a stock mythbuntu 10.10
.23 installation.  While the upgrade went reasonably well at the beginning,
it's been less than ideal since.  Every machine in my stable has been much
less reliable, and now my backend fails to start.  here's what I see when I
launch it from a command line:  (my backend has been working satisfactrilly
since April of this year when I last did a fresh Myhbuntu 10.04 OS/Myth
install).

I'm new to the daily build world.  is it possible to use on a "production"
system?  I've only been using it for 3 days, and I've had a separate issue
each of those days. Iv'e been updating daily as none of my systems seem
reliable yet, hoping that one day it will all work as expected.  While .23
wasn't perfect, it was stable enough that I'd only have to reboot every
couple of weeks when the frontends would slow down, etc. Any suggestions for
how I can approach this issue, and can I expect things to eventually work or
should I just rebuild my .23 system and wait till things mature?

I hope I don't come across overly negative, I've had a frustrating day, and
now even my TV is messing with me!

Thanks for any suggestions,

Josh
