There is but one true Linux distribution: Debian and Slackware...
wait.... there are but two true Linux distributions: Debian, Slackware
and Mandrake.... wait..... there are but three true Linux distributions:
Debian, Slackware, Mandrake and Gentoo....

Take your pick......  MythTV's requirements can be met on all.

Disclaimer: the order of the above distributions does not reflect my
personal favorites in any way.  Those not informed in the ways of the
"Spanish Inquisition" (Monty Python) will, well, never mind.
