[mythtv-users] Looking for a good Ubuntu Install Guide

[Jean-Marc Melchior]

the problem is, that Mythtv creates a text file with a random  
password mysql besides the password you setup in mythtv-setup, I  
don't remember exactly which file it is, but it has a name like  
mysql.txt, i think it is /etc/mythtv/mysql.txt if you edit that file  
and change the password to your actual Mysql password then it should  
work...
