Comment out the start of dvb driver in runvdr: # Load driver if it hasn't been loaded already: #if [ $LSMOD -eq 0 ] ; then # (cd $DVBDIR; make insmod) # fi 2. Create new dvb-start.sh script (is the & at the right place ?): # Load driver if it hasn't been loaded already: if [ $LSMOD -eq 0 ] ; then (cd $DVBDIR; &make insmod) fi Question: If the dvb-driver hangs, will the restart be unaffected from this change ? (I think so, but i'll ask to be sure ;-) Regards, Christoph
