Hi, As the mythtv-status author, my preferred solution is to have mythtv- status run via update-motd.
Just symlink'ing /usr/bin/mythtv-status into /etc/update-motd.d/ isn't the best solution - you won't pick up the configuration settings. However, the next version of mythtv-status will use a stand along config file which it tries to load, and that'll allow a much cleaner solution to this. In the meantime, the work around that Stefan gives is probably better (no need to restart cron though). Also, the latest version of mythtv- status (not in Ubuntu yet) checks if motd.new exists before it tries to move it in an attempt to reduce the race condition that is being hit.
