I'm not sure whether I like the idea that VDR starts again after 5 minutes, probably just in that moment when I am plugging a PCI card or something like that. (Yes, you're *supposed* to pull the plug first. You really do? ;) ) Anyway, 5 mins is too short, anything less that 10 mins will be denied by nvram-wakeup default configuration. > If the user doesn't want this to happen, then he/she can simply go > into the Timers menu and turn timers off as desired. I don't have a problem with disabling the offending timers manually. I just wrote the patch because of the request. Its just a bit strange that VDR requires extra confirmation, and then nvram-wakeup denies shutdown anyway. (or other shoudown scrips doing even more strange things) On a side note: With some scripting-fu, it should be possible to disable the offending timers from the shutdown script via SVDRP, and then request the new reboot time also via SVDRP.
