I've had Mythfrontend crash on me several times recently (53 times in
the last week and a half), and though I've found some clues I'm not
really sure what the cause is.  I'll try to explain everything I've
noticed.  Feel free to ask me any questions to find more information.

>From the user's perspective, Mythfrontend crashes intermittently right
as a recorded program is being watched.  When Mythfrontend starts up,
the first program watched never causes the problem.  Often, but not
always, it will happen on the second program, and it rarely makes it
past the third or fourth.

The problem first appeared after upgrading the kernel to 2.6.10 and
installing the 6629 version of the nVidia driver.  It's possible that
nVidia is the problem, but since it's also likely a MythTV problem, I
figured I'd post here first.  Anyway, here's a backtrace from GDB:

#0  0xb64c0226 in _nv000833gl () from /usr/lib/libGLcore.so.1
#1  0xb73fa210 in _nv000030gl () from /usr/lib/libGL.so.1
#2  0x00054007 in ?? ()
#3  0x000042fc in ?? ()
#4  0xb7fbe4ac in __JCR_LIST__ () from /usr/lib/libmythtv-0.16.so.0

Please let me know if there is any other information I can provide that
would be helpful.

Thanks a ton.
