[mythtv-users] Mythfrontent causes segfault in /usr/bin/X

For others that might encounter this; turned out that my /usr/lib64/nvidia
was empty except for one invalid symlink. Don't know why, perhaps a failed
package update or something.

Removing the nvidia drivers and kmods, reinstalling akmod-nvidia and
kmod-nvidia, and restarting seems to have resolved the issue.
