master-timer or vdradmind will do such things.

heat:
i've got a PII-350 (the slot-version) with the fan unplugged (and the 
fan of the riva-tnt which is much noisier unplugged too). the only 
fan running is the low-noise power-supply fan.

the pc is stored inside a wooden locker in our living room which has 
two 30cm holes on the back and one small hole down to the socket near 
the front of the locker.

in this situation the cpu has an average temperature of 65C and runs 
uninterrupted for over 2 years without any flaws (i'm wondering 
myself too *G*). the riva tnt will do some flickering now - but is 
used for console operations only now and then.

i've got an old PI-166 with passive cooling (even not a big heatsink) 
in my firewall running a compareable time now - so this should be no 
problem at all.

performance:
i tried a PI-200 once (in the beginning of vdr) and it didnt work too 
good for me - but maybe the motherboards ide chipset was the real 
problem.

wbr.tja...
