 Ubuntu 13.04 64-bit AMD Phenom II x6 1090T

 Dialog that appears after starting setup asks for "current login
 password," presumably the linux user password.  However, using the logged-
 in system administrator password results in the message "Incorrect
 password... try again."  The same result is achieved by using the current
 user's mythtv MySQL password and the mythtv MySQL password (85ctLXIf).
 These passwords have all been verified using MySQL Workbench.  Attempting
 to bypass the dialog by selecting cancel results in the MythTV Setup
 Terminal, not the familiar GUI.

 There is no way to access the backend setup.
