Has anyone had any success getting MythTV installed and working without
resorting to Mythbuntu?

Yes, lots of people have.

I am having problems getting it to connect to
the database despite being able to access it myself in a terminal.

How is your master backend defined in the Myth UI? On your backend system,
do you have MySQL listening on localhost (127.0.0.1) only, or is it
listening on your LAN interface? (If you don't know how to find the
answers to those questions, let me know).

think the problem is with it trying to call kdesu instead of kdesudo
when opening the database. Is there some way to redirect this?

There should be no need to use any kind of sudo command to open the
database.
...assuming you've set up MythTV to run as a user who has full access to the mythconverg database.

cheers

Chris
