However I've noticed that this does not in any way stop vdr from performing recordings on time etc. It only appears to affect the display device. I bound a key on my remote that does "killall -KILL vdr" so no need to start sshing or pulling power cables when it happens :) It used to happen more often for me when I had a 1GHz celeron doing the job, once every day or so. Now with the 1.8GHz duron it's more like once a week. Sounds like a race somewhere, no?
