[mythtv-users] Trouble running mythtv-setup

Greetings,
 I have assembled a PC running FC4 per instructions listed at Jarod's site.
Everything works up until I try to run mythtv-setup. It looks like the
X-server just freezes up. When I ssh into the machine top reveals that "X"
is using up 100% of the processor!! I am running FC4 on an AMD Athlon 64.
ECS MoBo (SiS chipset). 200 GB Maxtor SATA drive. I am able to capture video
and sound using the Hauppage WinTV card. Everything displays properly, just
that mythtv does will not complete setup. Here is an excerpt from lspci

lspci output

 I noticed that the background jpg was garbled the SECOND time I ran the
setup routine. The first run through went ok except for freezing X. Any help
would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you.
