Comment:

 Your first issue reported here was a problem you were experiencing in
 Mythbuntu. They have a script wrapped around ''mythtv-setup'' that adds a
 lot of additional behavior, specifically the behavior you were having
 trouble with. While we do not want to discourage use of Mythbuntu, we do
 not maintain it here, and thus cannot support problems with it here.

 This issue you are experiencing here is a user configuration issue. MythTV
 sets up initial access to the ''mythconverg'' database for the local
 machine and the username and password ''mythtv'' when the ''mc.sql'' file
 is manually imported by the user. Any GRANTs beyond that need to be
 configured manually by the user, as described in the documentation. Access
 to the database from other machines requires manual changes to the
 database server configuration, also described in the documentation. MythTV
 is not given administrative privileges to the database server or the host
 system, and thus cannot make these changes for you. User configuration
 issues are to be dealt with through user support channels, either the
 [http://www.mythtv.org/mailman/listinfo/mythtv-users mailing list] or
 [irc://irc.freenode.net/mythtv-users IRC channel]. Much of the database
 configuration is performed automatically by Mythbuntu, but then as
 mentioned before, we do not maintain it here, and cannot support it here.
