Are you sure you have 29? The default theme on 29 is now MythCenter and 
not Terra.

Sometimes when changing themes you have to exit the frontend and start 
it again. This seems to be when your themes in the .mythtv directory 
have been lost or corrupted, which may happen if you have installed a 
new operating system version with the home directory cleared out.
