I tried now, with a /etc/rc.vdr containing; #!/bin/sh # # Start VDR export HOME="/root" export USER="root" export LANG="en_US" export PATH="/sbin:/usr/sbin:/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/local/bin" /bin/setserial /dev/ttyS1 uart none; /sbin/modprobe lirc_serial /usr/bin/screen -dmS vdr /usr/local/bin/runvdr 2>&1 >| /tmp/vdrlog.txt & Still doesn't work. rc.vdr is started from /etc/rc.local. Maybe the problem is the extended runvdr script by Udo Richter I'm using? -- Torgeir Veimo torgeir@xxxxxxxxx _______________________________________________ vdr mailing list vdr@xxxxxxxxxxx http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/vdr
