[mythtv-users] Problem with new frontend

I just installed a spare PC I put together as a new frontend and I'm
having some trouble. I installed Mythbuntu 8.10 (x64) on it, and when
the package manager ran, I had it install all of the latest packages.
Not sure what they all were, but thought I'd mention it. However, now
I've noticed that the frontend process never starts automatically. If I
try to run it manually, I see on the terminal window that it trys to
connect to the database a few times (and I know that works), then I see
the following errors:
No theme dir: /home/hdevine/.mythtv/themes/Mythbuntu-8.04
Switching to square mode (Mythbuntu-8.04)
Using the QT painter
mythtv: could not connect to socket
mythtv: No such file or directory
lirc_init failed for mythtv, see preceding messages
JoystickMenuClient Error: Joystick disabled - failed to read
/home/hdevine/.mythtv/joystickmenurc
ICE default IO error handler doing an exit(), pid = 8463, errno 32
1) I'm running 8.10, so I have no ideas what the 8.04 errors mean; 2) I
don't have a remote on that machine so I don't know why the lirc errors
are happening; and 3) why would some of the required directories be
there (i.e. "no such file or directory") on a pre-packaged distro?
Thanks for any help!
Harry
