            fine, all patches up to date. Has rebooted multiple times.
            Today from MCC I ran optimize tables and backed up the
            database. Then I erased some tuners (left 1) and added
            another one (testing a second ceton device). When I
            restarted Mythtv it did not show the new tuner in the
            back-end nor in upcoming recordings, only the one I had
            left, it also showed 4 tuners with no name that I had
            erased, but no upcoming recording associated to them. Went
            back into the Back-end configuration, erased all tuners
            added 2 (old ceton new ceton device). Restarted mythtv could
            not see the new tuner, Rebooted the pc, now mysql wont start

    Have a look in /var/log/mysql/error.log, If it has something like <br>
     [ERROR] unknown variable 'table_cache=128'<br>
    This is preventing mysql  from starting.<br>
    <br>
    I suspect you have a file named mythtv-tweaks.cnf in
    /etc/mysql/conf.d/<br>
    <br>
    Edit this file and comment out (just put # at start of line) the
    line<br>
    table_cache = 128<br>
    <br>
    so it looks like<br>
    #table_cache = 128<br>
    <br>
    then reboot<br>
