[mythtv-users] mac osx frontend and mysql

[Paul McKellar]

i ran the various lines in the documentation, unless knoppmyth does
its own thing, because i can't remember if it said "1 lines altered" 
or 0 lines altered.  i seem to remember it saying 0 and then, being
like "well that must not be the problem"  but if the identified phrase
to specify which lines isn't correct, then the problem would not have
been fixed.
