New member here. I've been struggling for weeks trying to get MythTV running.

tvtime works. (I haven't tackled the audio yet)
Mythtv does not.

Motherboard: Asus P7H57D-M EVO
CPU: Intel Core i3-550
Graphics: EVGA GT430
Hardware: Hauppauge pvr-950Q
OS: Ubuntu 11.04
Kernel: 2.6.38-8-server 
Video source: Analog cable (US) 
		(with some digital channels) But I'm trying to get just the analog working at this time.
I'm using the Mythtv software from that distribution.

When I start to watch live TV, it shows the channel name, but the screen is black.
