Looks like it's running. 

[root at mythtv ~]# ps aux | grep cron
root     20854  0.0  0.0  5116  696 ?        Ss   07:40   0:00 crond

I removed them in case they were somehow causing the problem. The paths
were correct, the files were in /root. 

Yet they won't run when they're in there. Is there any way to see any
