Is it there, or isn't it? I don't know if it matters, but when I was
trying to fix the X problem, I built and booted with a new kernel:

Did you try going back to the old kernel?

I went back to the old kernel

camille ~ # uname -a
Linux camille 2.6.26-gentoo-r4 #1 SMP Sat Dec 13 17:31:25 CST 2008 i686
GNU/Linux


and the video worked, at least from /dev/v4l/video0.  This is a
temporary solution, but now I can't get mythtv to work.  LiveTV won't
work, and it won't show my upcoming programs. I've verified that mysql
is running:

and when I run mythbackend and frontend in a terminal, I get this:
...
ERROR: no valid capture cards are defined in the database.

Is it possible that, when you booted with the new kernel & no cards were found they were removed from MythTV's database?

I have never used MythTV, but maybe - under the old kernel - you can add them back in using MythTV's setup and they'll work again?

This doesn't help why the cards are not shown under the new kernel, but if you are easily able to add them in then it would demonstrate that your hardware is OK & perhaps inspire confidence.

Stroller.
