[mythtv-users] mysql hates me...

I just tried installing MythTV, the current SVN version (Saterday nite) on a 
new install of Fedora6.

Now I ALWAYS seem to have problems with mysql, and this (attempted) install 
is no different.

Can someone PLEASE point out what I am doing wrong.

Here is a typescript of what I have done.

>   [mythtv at MythTV mythtv]$ cd database
>   [mythtv at MythTV database]$ mysql -u root < mc.sql

>   [mythtv at MythTV database]$ mysql -u root mythconverg
    Welcome to the MySQL monitor.  Commands end with ; or \g.
    Your MySQL connection id is 3 to server version: 5.0.27

    Type 'help;' or '\h' for help. Type '\c' to clear the buffer.

>   mysql> grant all on mythconverg.* to mythtv@".dwf.com" identified by "mythtv";

>   mysql> flush privileges;
    Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.00 sec)

>   mysql> exit;
    Bye

>   [mythtv at MythTV ~]$ mythtv-setup

    < till exit >

The first two steps seem to go just fine, but when I do 'mythtv-seteup',
output scrolls by like crazy, with the above snippit being the beginning
of what I see.  

It MAY be telling me that something called QMYSQL3 is not loaded, 
but I dont know what that is.  Mysql is running from the init script, 
and Im not sure what else there is...

Someone, HELP.
