Thanks, I've tested the new script and it works fine.  Also noticing a 
lot of updates on the Raspberry PI OS daily.  I know they are working on 
the kernel.

I've seen comments about some issue with mythtv frontend and something 
called the "compositor", but I have not seen any issues.  I'm running a 
test now with a fresh install of the OS, full-upgrade, and then using 
your pi-setup_mythtv_31.sh to setup a frontend only. It worked yesterday 
on another system but all I did was fix run_mythfrontend.sh
