Well that can't really happen; that echo statement comes before the suspected
command so at least that echo *must* work! So I'd have to assume either your
csh is broken, or something in your mandrake. Does a shellscript with only
that echo statement work at all ? And why use csh anyway, I thought that
shell was ehm... deprecated ? What does bash do ?

Correct. But from what you write, the bug you have is not in mythtv.
