What version of mythbuntu are you on? If you are on lucid, natty or
oneric you can upgrade:

1. backup your database http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/Database_Backup_and_Restore

2. Assuming you are already using mythbuntu repos sudo
dpkg-reconfigure mythbuntu-repos

choose 0.25

3. sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get safe-upgrade -V

All settings will be retained because they are in your database.

If you need to revert go back to the backed up database you saved in (1).
