This is a much better question for the -users list. Moving it now for you...

Hello Myth-Dev,

I'm trying to install mythtv on AMD64/fedora4 machine,
using a pre-compiled mythtv-suite. I get segmentation
fault when trying to run mythfrontend. I came across a
post on the packager's mailing list, where a user had
experienced similar problems, with mythtv - version
0.17, even when installed using svn. An svn-update
seems to have been the solution. The post was dated
about a month ago and I attach it below. Since I see
the same problem with the stable 0.18 version of
mythtv, I'm wondering if the fixes for x86_64 have
been released to the stable version??

Thanks

RKVJ

Axel,

Thanks for your response.

Yesterday the problem was fixed after I did a svn up.

I could use successfully mythtv on my
AMD64/Hauppauge350, yeah!

Hi,

I am a new user, and I had the same problem (I used
the RPM ar first). I
went as far as compiling mythtv directly from svn,
and I get the same
problem at start-up, something with threads being
spawned (?):
Yes, that looks like a thread problem, but probably
not related to the
other reported problems.

Since even svn shows this, I would report it to the
mythtv
lists. Unfortunatley most developers don't use mythtv
on 64 bits, so
some issues slip in.

BTW you can use the 32 bit variant of mythtv until
this is fixed.
