I set mine up a long time ago, but basically you just need to go into the mysql

grant all on mythconverg.* to mythtv@'%' identified by 'mythtv';

I guess you just use the mysql command above before starting the backend.  I'm 
not sure what the docs say for a fresh install to create the database the first 
time.
