Post subject:  Changed ip, now X won't start.

I'm trying to setup a remote frontend. On my backend, which has been running stable for a while, I ran mythtv-setup and changed the two IP adresses in there from 127.0.0.1 to 192.168.0.101. Immediatly after that I rebooted and then X wouldn't start. I'm running the latest CVS as of last night and the ivtv-0.2.0-rc3h driver. The following is from XFree86.0.log.
Code:
(II) Loading extension RECORD
(II) LoadModule: "ivtvdev"
(II) Loading /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/drivers/ivtvdev_drv.o
(II) Module fbdev: vendor="The XFree86 Project"
        compiled for 4.3.0, module version = 0.1.0
        ABI class: XFree86 Video Driver, version 0.6
(II) LoadModule: "mouse"
(II) Loading /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/input/mouse_drv.o
(II) Module mouse: vendor="The XFree86 Project"
        compiled for 4.3.0, module version = 1.0.0
        Module class: XFree86 XInput Driver
        ABI class: XFree86 XInput driver, version 0.4
(II) v4l driver for Video4Linux
(II) IVTVDEV: driver for framebuffer: fbdev
(II) Primary Device is: PCI 01:00:0
(EE) open /dev/fb1: No such device
(EE) No devices detected.

Fatal server error:
no screens found


Any ideas of what went wrong? Alternativly, is there a way I can undo my changes? I can't seem to find where mythtv-setup stores its IP settings.

I gave up on this one and just did a reinstall. When I installed the latests CVS it messed up in the same way again. I went back a few days in CVS, installed and it worked. In the interest of tracking down a bug I spent the next several hours installing from CVS at various days and times only to discover that the latest doesn't have this problem anymore. Very strange. Nothing in myth-commits recently sounds related.

I'm getting another error now, "cannot initialize video" when I try to watch recordings or live tv. I'll try an older CVS version tonight.

I couldn't get on the Chris Kennedy site to download ivtv, so I'm using the version that came with R4V5, which has had problems for me before.
