Hi;

Assuming you have a core file, look at: http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/Debugging#Using_core_files

You'll probably want to read the whole page. ulimit -c unlimited is required, I prefer the
configuration changes under /etc/sysctl.d and if you're on mythbuntu, /etc/default/apport
needs to have enabled=0 for the suggested sysctl changes to work.
