Had the same error as Robert but I added Jeremy's gpg keys and mythtv 
installed without a hitch.  Well, mysql didn't... but I got that fixed.
So, what I did was install breezy from scratch and then installed 
Jeremy's mythtv packages.  Mythtv 0.19 worked flawlessly right away once 
I figured out my db problems (for some reason mythtv couldn't be granted 
access to the db unless I ran mythtv-setup as root.....).
Even sound worked great right out the box with only one change to 
Alsamixer, as opposed to my 10000 porblems I had when first installing 
mythtv.
However, I have two questions:

One, is it possible to take an old db from say version .17 or .18 and 
get the info from that db into my new freshly installed 0.19 myth?  What 
I did was install 0.19 from scracth, so I have my old db backup sitting 
here, but it is in the wrong format.  If anyone knows if this is 
possible, let me know.

Two, is anyone using the latest ATI drivers and NOT having any 
problems?  Arrrgh, just when I thought the drivers couldn't get any 
_worse_, the latest version is just terrible.  I'm plagued by the whole 
not being able to get xv working because the kernel module won't load 
for opengl acceleration.  I was able to eventually solve the problem 
using the older drivers last time.  But this time I can't get these 
blasted ATI drivers working properly.  Following my own advice I've 
given on these forums doesn't seem to work, lol... alas.
If anyone has some advice on that, much appreciated.  Until I get it 
fixed, I get my 98% utilization by X while watching a 640x480 stream :(
