I see the whitescreen on my MythTV 0.27 front ends. I've chosen to use the 
Qt paint engine because the fade effects I see with menu transitions when 
the OpenGL engine is enabled aren't to my taste. Were it not for the fade 
effects I'd be happy to use OpenGL. Is there any way to disable the fade 
effects without having to resort to the Qt paint engine?

Thanks,
Dave
