[mythtv-users] Problem after attempting CVS, everything is broken!

Sun Nov 14 23:01:58 UTC 2004

An update on my situation:
I have restored my mythtv-suite to the current 0.16 rpm build.  This resolved the undefined symbol problem that I was having before.  

I have also followed Jarod's Guide for Fedora Core 1 to update my kernel version as well as ivtv stuff to match the new kernel.  I am still met with /dev/dsp: Permission Denied errors when attempting to watch recordings.  I made sure artsd is not running.

All ivtv tests using Jarod's Guide worked properly with sound.

I am also still having the problem that my unchanged XF86Config file still won't make X display through my TV.  I confirmed that my PVR-350 settings remained the same through all of these changes.  I am now seeing a black screen with a white cursor flashing in the middle.

Any help getting these lingering issues resolved would be appreciated, if you need to see any of my configurations, just say so.  I have attached my XF86Config file, which has the proper settings for my Hauppauge card.

  Subject: [mythtv-users] Problem after attempting CVS, everything is broken!

  I made my first attempt at CVS by following the instructions here: http://www.mythtv.info/moin.cgi/UpgradeToCvsHowTo.  My system was originally set up by using Jarod's Guide.

  I am running Fedora Core 1, and I was attempting to fix a problem with my Edit mode.  The make, make install, and all of the copy commands for the CVS MythTV went fine, but after I restarted I noticed problems: most noteably my system would not start up X through the TV like it always had!

  After it was apparent to me that things were not acting properly, I followed the instructions on the HowTo that said to run to restore the release version of Myth: apt-get --reinstall install mythtv-suite.

  It appears now that my backend won't start as a daemon (or at all), when I attempt to start it manually I get 
  Session management error: Authentication Rejected, reason : None of the
  authentication protocols specified are supported and host-based authentication
  failed
  mythbackend: relocation error: mythbackend: undefined symbol:
  _ZN11MythContextC1ERK7QStringbb

  My frontend gives the following problems:
  mythfrontend
  Xlib:  extension "GLX" missing on display ":1.0".
  Xlib:  extension "GLX" missing on display ":1.0".
  Session management error: Authentication Rejected, reason : None of the
  authentication protocols specified are supported and host-based authentication
  failed
  mythfrontend: relocation error: mythfrontend: undefined symbol:
  _ZN11MythContextC1ERK7QStringbb

  In addition to all of this, my system no longer runs X through the TV out, and I did nothing to my configuration files!  I can still run the ivtv tests from Jarods Guide successfully, but I'm really stuck at how to begin to restore my setup.

  I really don't want to have to wipe the installation, as I have about three months of recordings on this thing that I would prefer not to lose.  Any help would be appreciaited!

  Josh
