Description

When starting the frontend using alt-m mythfrontend-start never exits. This causes a problem for pause-mythcommflag.sh.

When this command runs:
top -bn1u mythtv | grep mythfrontend | awk '{ print $9 }'

It returns:
13
0

This causes pause-mythcommflag to get confused and hangs and causes other weird problems

Once you kill the "/usr/LH/bin/mythfrontend-start" process all is well.

top -bn1u mythtv | grep mythfrontend | awk '{ print $9 }'

It returns:
13

and all is well.
