[mythtv] Motif?

Interesting. I've taken a look at this, and following clues, I suspect that
something is wrong with the styles (if they are present at all) installed
with this particular set of qt3 packages I've got.

It won't let me launch qtconfig, and I am also unable to select a valid
style by editing ./qt/qtrc.

I was just trying to determine if Mandrake cooker had separated the styles
into a new package, but it would appear that they haven't.
