[mythtv-users] programgenres hosed...

I had a kernel panic last night on my database server that must have
occurred during an access to the programgenres - because the table is
now marked as "in use" in phpMyAdmin, and a repair operation returns:
mythconverg.programgenres repair error Incorrect file format
'programgenres'
When I try to run my (new, unfortunately) mysqldump script, I get:
mysqldump: Got error: 130: Incorrect file format 'programgenres' when
using LOCK TABLES
It seems like my only recourse is to drop the table and recreate it, but
I already know (from a previous problem) that mythtv won't gracefully
handle missing tables. I can't find the current table design on the
web. Could someone provide the table structure for me? Or does anyone
have any other suggestions to fix/prevent this in the future?
My current plan is to frequently dump the database so that if a
corruption occurs again I can roll back to an old copy, at least until I
fix the kernel panic issues.
