I am running ubuntu edgy on one of my frontends and I upgraded to the
latest svn about two weeks ago and it worked fine. I installed another
frontend two nights ago and had to upgrade my back and frontend because
of protocal mismatch. My backend and the new frontend is working fine.
The old frontend that was working with .20.2 crashes on startup. I
submitted a ticket but haven't seen much yet. There are a lot of
changes being made and I'm sure that's what got me but I thought I
would see if anyone else has seen this problem. Below is the error
message

also renamed my theme so it would go back to default to make sure that
isn't it and I also deleted the .mythtv directory since I don't think
it is used anymore. No luck. The full ticket can be referenced <a href="http://svn.mythtv.org/trac/ticket/3985">here</a>. Thanks for any help.
