Hi Jan

I had this problem before, and it was caused by building MythTV from a 
different git branch than fixes/0.28. If you are building yourself and 
your git branch is named differently (or if your package builder had a 
different named git branch), it defaults to pull the theme from master 
(know as "trunk" in the themes system).

Check by running mythfrontend --version, see if it says "MythTV Branch : 
fixes/0.28". If it says anything else, that could be your problem.
