I've been working on exactly this issue over the last couple of days.
The problem is that MythTV requires a V4L interface, which the cxm
driver doesn't supply.  I have code to add this functionality, and
intend to try it out in th next couple of days.  See
http://www.lemis.com/grog/diary-feb2007.html#22 for a blow-by-blow
description.

Let me know off-list if you want to try the patches.
