actually it turns out this is caused by a case of following
the instructions TOO Closely GRIN...in step 12, If you
create the  mythconverg database (mysql -u root [path to
mythv]/mc.sql) and then create the databases for myth
gallery, video, music etc you'll get this error...

I dropped the database table, ran the first part of step
12, to create the database, then Ran mythtvsetup, THEN went
back and ran the rest of the table creation steps and
everything is fine now  :)
(or at least I HOPE it is, I'll find out if my scheduled
recordings worked today in about an hour or so GRIN)

I'm also running into this problem from a clean (my first)
install.  I'm not sure how to verify that the database is
empty (searches only turned up this thread), and I'm not
sure how to force mythtvsetup to run and ignore the error
message about the populated database.  :(  And I was this
close to recording the first episode of '24' tomorrow
night...
