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.

Cheers!
