[mythtv-users] OK, I screwed something up.... OpenGL fiasco

Tue Oct 17 13:53:00 UTC 2006

I tried the openGL interface.  Now mythfrontend won't start up.

It goes into a loop with QGLContext::makeCurrent(): Cannot make invalid 
context current.

I've dug up this message in the archives, and using the -O 
UseOpenGLPainter=0 cli option is supposed to fix this, but no joy.

Any other ideas?
