This time you are running as root and there is no 'mysql.txt' file in 
/root/.mythtv  You need a symlink to /etc/mythtv/mysql.txt.

Regarding the QGtkStyle error, install the qt-config package. Then run 
qtconfig-qt4 and select a style from the dropdown. I have no idea why 
this error should arise. It did not in Fedora14 and I did not see it on 
my laptop with F15. You may have omitted to install the qt-x11 package 
which carries most of the infrastructure which is adjusted by the 
qtconfig-qt4 gui.
