Browsing around I found a common reason is a mixed frontend/backend
setup. Mine are not. Both the fronend and backend are 0.18.1.
I highly recommend digging deeper. Are they really 0.18.1 (perhaps one
is 0.18-fixes SVN). If a combined frontend/backend, check your paths
(perhaps you have one version is /usr/local and another is /usr).
Thanks for the response. I think you are onto something:
gandalf ~ # slocate ivtv-detect

/usr/local/bin/ivtv-detect
/home/mark/IVTV/ivtv-0.3.7d/utils/ivtv-detect.c

At some earlier date the machine was running ivtv-0.3.7 from
source. With the kernel update I started using ivtv-0.4.0 from
portage. This was installed at Thanksgiving. It looks like the source
install placed things in /usr/local/bin while portage placed it in
/usr/bin.
While I cannot yet be 100% sure this is the problem, it's certainly
badly configured and needs to be fixed.
True that it needs fixed, but it wouldn't cause a protocol version
mismatch--only differing versions of mythbackend and client (like
mythfrontend or MythWeb) would do that.
