I can tell that, but I also plan to revamp an old Celeron 466 + DXR3 into a brand new carputer... without any (much) add-on cost... > - 2.4 kernel, everybody uses 2.6 ? You have the typical VDR setup, particularly the one Klaus uses, so it should be safe. > - Using DVB-S as output only is bad idea > - Bad HW (computer or DVB-FF) Test your memory with memtest (or memtest86) and your CPU with cpuburn. Both will also stress the chipset. You will be confident after that (or you'll have replaced a few chips). This old computer could very well hurt you. No systematic test for the DVD card, though. > - Bad DVB driver version > - Bad VDR version > - Bad luck Or bad compiler, bad package source, bad dependencies. Did you try precompiled packages only, or at the contrary only self-compiled plackages and plug-ins ? > - Nothing broken, this is the way it is for everybody.
