There don't must be a broken cable. A single entry in channels.conf is enough 
then epg kicks in. I have seen such a behavior too on my machine. Just hadn't 
the time to track this down. If I have loaded driver and not running vdr I 
have this wild-running kdvb-fe processes too. Ahh and 90 % on duron 1100 is 
quite a lot ;). (Currently I use 1.1.15 again, because 1.1.20 has problems 
with some EPG)
