Bruce,
Thanks for the tips, I'll remember them in the future.  Unfortunately,
they didn't help directly.  But running the backend at the console
(instead of /etc/init.d/mythbackend start) allowed me to see that
/dev/video0 went missing!  Once I got ivtv back up and running, all was
well.  Thanks again for your tips!

Also, I've noticed that mysqlcheck will report a table as 'OK' even when
it's not.  If I check the table using the mysql client with 'check table
program;' (for example) it shows it as not OK/corrupt.  Any idea as to
why this is?  I thought both actions were identical.

Thanks,
Matt
