My experience with this one is that I *thought* it was working fine
and then I found out it wasn't. Just because X comes up doesn't mean
everything is working. If I use the default hald/evdev/no xorg.conf
setup as discussed in the upgrade guide then X runs but mythfrontend
segfaults. If I go back to an old xorg.conf file from a previous
release of xorg then mythfrontend doesn't segfault.

Just my experience so far,
Mark
