Hmmm.... actually I just saw some output after exiting mythtvsetup that
probably is the problem.
 Couldn't open /dev/video0 to probe its inputs.
Couldn't open /dev/video1 to probe its inputs.
 I assumed this is a another permissions issue so I tried running
mythtvsetup as root. Sure enough, I could setup the card as expected. What
is the command or file I need to edit to give permission to the mythtv user
to use the videoX devices? The official docs reference instructions for
Mandrake, but I am on FC4.

Thanks!
