How do I mark this as solved?<br><br>For this to work I had to do two things.<br>1. Create a second mythtv profile. <br> In addition to the normal .mythtv directory under the mythtv user home page, I added a new .mythtv-vnc directory.<br>
This directory holds a new config.xml file and I set up the startup sequence to make sure that MYTHCONFIGDIR <br> points at the right directory depending on how I am accesing the system: .mythtv if through the main console, <br>
.mythtv-vnc if I am accesing it through vnc.<br>2. Change the ServicePort, SSDP and SearchPort as shown in here:<br> <a href="http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/mythtv/dev/298527#298527">http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/mythtv/dev/298527#298527</a><br>

Before I go any further, I just found out, by opening a session through TigerVNC, that I have a mythtvfrontend instance working from VNC (the vncserver starts it).<br><br>After I exited the mythfrontend instance on VNC, I was able to start mythfrontend normally without any segfault.<br>
<br>I think I read something about a similar problem but I can't find it again. <br>Have you heard of this situation? I used to be able to have them both working without problem, did anything change? Could It be that I am doing the service port fix wrong?<br>

</div>We would need a backtrace to debug the segfault which would tell us in<br>
which part of the code to look for the problem.<br>
<br>
<a href="http://www.mythtv.org/docs/mythtv-HOWTO-22.html#ss22.2" target="_blank">http://www.mythtv.org/docs/mythtv-HOWTO-22.html#ss22.2</a><br>
<br>
Since it appears a core file was created you may be able to create the<br>
bt from that using the instructions from the last section of this wiki<br>
page :-<br>
<a href="http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/Debugging" target="_blank">http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/Debugging</a><br>
<br>
The bt produced from the core may not contain enough information to<br>
figure out where the segfault is so we may ask you to temporarily<br>
install the debug builds for Myth and get a new bt from those which<br>
would contain more information.<br>
