If the patch has a rollback try using it and seeing if it makes a difference
(it'll be in the add/remove software menu in that case).

The error you are seeing is generated if the backend thread takes more than
one second to liven up and finish its initialization. On my test system it
takes less than 20 milliseconds to do this so I'd say that something is going
on that's seriously slowing down or more likely completely jamming up the POVMS
and/or POV code initialization.
