(FYI I have been using information on how to do this from www.wilson-stowe.com/mythtv/installguide )
I keep getting an error message when trying
#apt-get install mythtv
It says
Failed to connect to database: Unknown MySQL Server Host 'mythtv' (1) at -e line 5, <> line 1. Failed to create database (incorrect admin username/password?) If you supplied incorrect information, try: dpkg-reconfigure --force mythtv-database dhcp111164:~# dpkg-reconfigure --force mythtv-database Failed to connect to database: Unknown MySQL Server Host 'mythtv' (1) at -e line 5, <> line 1.

So I try to do the dpkg-reconfigure --force mythtv-database and I still get the same error. Any one have any idea what I should try next? Thanks for any help or advice.

What is the hostname of the computer running mysql? It looks like it is expecting "mythtv".
Does that hostname resolve? If not add it to /etc/hosts
