it cannot connect to backend... butit still works</DIV>

<DIV class=moz-text-flowed lang=x-western
style="FONT-SIZE: 13px; FONT-FAMILY: -moz-fixed">Hi everyone, <BR><BR>I am
running mythtv 0.20 on Ubuntu Edgy Eft. I've implemented shutdown/wakeup using
/proc/acpi/alarm. As such I need mythwelcome to ensure the backend idles and
shuts the system down after x seconds. <BR><BR>Mythwelcome is configured to
launch at startup (under 'sessions' options in Gnome, with gdm set to
autologin the mythtv user at startup too). However, I'm met with an error
stating that it cannot connect to the backend. If I dismiss this error, of
indeed leave it on display, the system will still shut down. Mythwelcome will,
after dismissing the error, eventually show some of the information it should,
but not display the next scheduled recording. <BR><BR>If I restart mythwelcome
it shows everything it should. If I dismiss the connection error and launch
mythfrontend from within mythwelcome, it works fine. If I configure
mythfrontend to run at startup instead of mythwelcome, it works fine... but
obviously never goes idle and so doesn't shut down. <BR><BR>I'm not sure where
to look for the cause of/solution to this problem. Any suggestions please?
