Are you just setting up your install? If so look

Are you just setting up your install?  .....yes.

This is what /etc/password has;
mythtv:x:75:75:mythtvbackend

User:/var/lib/mythtv:/sbin/nologin


Otherwise change the shell that the account is

using.


I do not know what this means?

With ":/sbin/nologin" you have prevented this

account having an


interactive login...
and using "su - mythtv" you are trying to use the

login shell.


either change "/sbin/nologin" or just "su" instead

of "su -"
[EMAIL PROTECTED] don]$ su mythtv

Just 'su' is 'root'.
'mythfrontend' opens using 'root' but  Is it wise to
do this?

There is also this error;

/sbin/login is an executable file with the symbols
and such.
I don't have a clue how to change it.

Become root and at the command prompt type
usermod -s `which bash` mythtv


------------------------------------------------------------------------


[EMAIL PROTECTED] don]$ su - mythtv
Password:
-bash-2.05b$
Is this correct?

What is the best way to start mythtv?
Console? Add mythtv to the gui menu?
