The upgrade from 2005LE to 2006 was fairly smooth, and nearly everything 
works - except mythtv

The problem seems to be something to do with mysql permissions and/or 
host names.  The back end dies as follows...

2005-10-26 18:30:41.910 Unable to connect to database!
2005-10-26 18:30:41.910 Driver error was [1/1045]:
QMYSQL3: Unable to connect
Database error was:
Access denied for user 'mythtv'@'localhost' (using password: YES)



Mysql is running, and I can see all the data in the mythconverg database 
from Webmin.  I have tried resetting the password for the user mythtv 
(it's supposed to be mythtv isn't it?)

Any ideas?
