[mythtv-users] Not compiled with any useable video output method.

After some trial and error I found out that the test for libXv in
configure failed. Even if my packet manager tells me that it is installed.

I then ran the following command:
rpm -ql libXv

This told me that this library was located in /usr/lib64.

I then added this folder in the has_library() function in configure. Now
it is working.
