Assuming you have the right version of MePo, that's true--it will show 
up once you put it in (the correct) themes directory (be careful about 
the whole /usr/local versus /usr thing or you can have it in your 
~/.mythtv/themes/).  You may need to restart the frontend.  You will 
/definitely/ need to at least restart the settings section where you 
choose the theme.
