I had a major breakthrough with MythTV this morning. Things started 
actually working.

Being an over excited newbie fool who wants to get his system 'just 
right', I thought. "I know, I'll change all of those settings that I was 
frantically changing to try to get things working back to what they 
should be". What happened? You guessed it, I broke it!

At one point of trying to fix old problems, I changed all of the 
'127.0.0.1's that I could find to '192.168.0.2's. I've heard different 
views on this though and being unsure as to if I did the right thing or 
not, I tried to change them all back. Since then, I can't get into 
anything :-)

Mythfrontend comes out with:

and mythtv-setup goes blue, but then crashes out with:

I also turned on OpenGL display somewhere in myth this morning, so I've 
wondered if that may be part of the reason that I can't get into 
mythtv-setup, but it was working fine earlier so I don't think that 
should be causing a problem.

Any idea how to fix my over enthusiastic adjustments?
Should the IP be 192.168.0.2 if I may want to use a different computer 
as a front end in the future? I may or may not. That's a little way down 
the line yet.

Cheers
Damian
