[vdr] Re: any ten minutes restarting vdr

[Ernst Fürst <efuerst@ticino.com>]

I was having a lot of trouble because of temparature problem with an old 
Hauppauge 1.3 revision and acpi with the elitegroup k7s5a revision 3.1.
Check this, maybe it helps:
1. Start the computer after a long break. Is vdr running for a longer 
time? Afterwards it breaks again after 10 minutes? --> Maybe you have a 
temparature problem. Try to cool the tvcard.
2. Your Linux-distribution maybe have a problem with the apic mode of 
your board. It depends from the version of your board.
With Suse Linux you can start Linux with the boot options 'noapic 
pci=noacpi'. With other distros i don't know.
But usually with this problem vdr should run for some hours, not just 
for 10 minutes.

I don't believe this is a software problem. I'm not a developper. But if 
there would be a software problem, there should be a message in the log 
file.
