  Expect mythtv to launch and have visible text.  Instead I have blocks of
  colour and no text.
  
  mythtv front end has been working in Jaunty since I installed it a few
  weeks ago.  At some stage during the last week, an update has broken the
  package for me.  When I launch mythtv, I get a central black box where
  the loading text use to be, I can still see my desktop.  The program
  hangs there and my desktop is unresponsive.  When I hit ESC, the screen
  changes to a full screen grey box with a black central box.  Below the
  black box is an orange bar and two more grey bars.  I can use the arrow
  keys to move the orange bar down one bar and hit return; this causes the
  program to exit normally.  It looks to me like I am just missing the
  text.
  
  I have removed (and dpkg --purge) and reinstalled mythtv-frontend but
  the problem persists.  I also deleted my $HOME/.mythtv directory.
  However, some configure files were left behind in /etc/mythtv; they are
  just the defaults plus the mysql password.
  
  I have check bugs #93986 and #156983 and I believe they are not related;
  I did install/confirm I had installed the suggest fonts just in case but
  I still have the problem.
  
  I do not have compiz active and no other application are acting strange;
  3d games etc are fine.
  
  This machine is a Thinkpad X31 with "ATI Technologies Inc Radeon
  Mobility M6 LY" graphics.
