There may be a more elegant solution, but here's what I did when I
accidentally deleted the MySQL root account once (!).

Use the following command to dump your database to disk.

mysqldump -u mythtv -p mythconverg -c > mythtv_backup.sql

In Ubuntu, I just go into Synaptic and tell it to "Completely remove"
the MySQL server.  This basically strips everything MySQL server off the
system including configuration files.

Now, reinstall MySQL server - you'll have a clean slate.  Change the
root password to "password" or something else easy to remember.  =P

Now use the following commands to restore your database.

$ mysql -u root -p
  mysql>create database mythconverg;
  mysql>exit
$ mysql -u mythtv -p mythconverg < mythtv_backup.sql


That should restore your data correctly and give you a fresh database with a root password you know.

Good luck!
