[mythtv-users] Lubuntu 16.04 - Latest NVidia update causes frontend to crash

[George Bingham]

Hello all,

This just happened today. Software updater downloaded and installed new
Nvidia drivers (version 304.132-0ubuntu0.16.04.2) and after rebooting,
mythtv frontend crashes when it attempts to launch.

The logs are not reporting an error, but here's where they leave off:

I am not sure how to debug this, but what I would like to do is look at the
specific options I have set for whether it's using OpenGL or what exactly
it has set for it's settings, but since the frontend doesn't load, I don't
know how to examine my settings.

Any suggestions?

Is there a command line option I can give to the frontend to increase
logging relative to it's graphic mode settings?

Thanks in advance,

Also, if the answer ends up being to "undo" the latest update... I am not
sure how to do that, so any hints towards that would be much appreciated!
