No, I do not want to make things complicated.
Yes, I very much want a working mythtv.
The only reason I asked the question regarding KnoppMyth was because you suggest it.



Before I would tell you to install knoppmyth, please answer:

1) Does /var/log/mythtv/mythbackend.log exist / have anything in it?

2) What does /etc/init.d/mythbackend contain?

3) Have you run the database setup sql script as detailed in
http://www.mythtv.org/docs/mythtv-HOWTO-6.html#ss6.2 ?

Yes.

Does /var/log/mythtv/mythbackend.log exist / have anything in it?

It does exist. It is empty.

What does /etc/init.d/mythbackend contain?

#!/bin/bash
#
# Startup script for mythbackend
#
# chkconfig: - 86 14
# description: mythbackend.
# processname: mythbackend
# pidfile: /var/run/mythbackend.pid
# config:

# Source function library.
. /etc/rc.d/init.d/functions

if [ -f /etc/mythtv/mythbackend ]; then
       . /etc/mythtv/mythbackend
fi

## Defaults, override them in /etc/mythtv/mythbackend
: ${MYTHTV_HOME=/var/lib/mythtv}
