Had the same problem, as follows: I used Mythbuntu 7.10 as a Live CD and the On-Screen Display (OSD) worked just fine while watching Live TV. I then loaded Mythbuntu onto the hard drive and attempted to watch Live TV. I did not fuss with settings, except to tell it where the backend is. However, no OSD would display during LiveTV on the frontend; only TV would display. My backend and other frontends still worked fine. I did a clean reload of Mythbuntu two more times in a vain attempt to make the problem go away.
I then fiddled with every setting in the Mythbuntu frontend I could. The only thing that fixed it was changing the Theme appearance to Mythbuntu (the installed default was G.A.N.T). Suddenly, the OSD worked, for all different OSD themes. I fiddled with all the settings to see it I could "break" it again, but I couldn't. I went back to G.A.N.T. appearance theme and OSD still worked for LiveTV. I have no idea what or why. I don't have the time to recreate this problem to verify my fix. If you need more info, I'll share what I know. Some info: MythDora 4.0 as a dedicated backend, Mythbuntu dedicated front end. I attached my mythbuntu's dmesg and Xorg.0.log files to give you something to pick around in. Ignore if you don't need them. ** Attachment added: "Xorg.0.log and dmesg combined.txt" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/13198094/Xorg.0.log%20and%20dmesg%20combined.txt -- No OSD and Menu https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/201007 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
