[TriLUG] mythtv issue

Jason - 

I saw this post, and have been interested in MythTV for quite some time.
Mind sharing some information on your setup? (System specs / network).
Thanks! 

I've very linux savvy (although my distro of choice is Gentoo).

Thanks again,

Eric

Subject: [TriLUG] mythtv issue

i installed knoppmyth on my home server and got it working.  can boot
knoppmyth on another machine and connect to the backend fine.  pretty
damn cool app (and this is coming from someone with two tivos).

while i was at it wanted mythfrontend on my main laptop (ubuntu breezy)
too, but there aren't any mythtv 0.19 packages so i grabbed the tarball.

everything builds fine but running mythfrontend results in zero network
traffic even though it says it's connecting to the backend server on a
different host.  tcpdump at both ends shows no traffic at all.  the
mysql-client package is installed, and i can connect using the mysql
command.  could this just be a missing dependency during the build that
wasn't detected, or some other silly little thing?
