i guess you are right.

i totally agree with you. the surface looks very professionell i must
say. you can "theme" it and it looks like a very expensive piece of
software. *g*

VDR looks more like dvb2000 from a few years ago. but maybe that's why
many ppl (me included) like it so much. no useless information, bells
and whistles. and even my gf can use it (BIG congrats for that go to
klaus *g*).

i guess installation should not be tooooo difficult using apt.

i just wanted to install it because (against the opinion of many other
ppl) i ALWAYS change a running system because i become bored really fast
and am looking for another task to solve...

so we'll see. i'll try to install it ... but i'll have to be finished
before my gf comes home and wants to watch "verbotene liebe" ;) in that
case: NEVER touch a running system is much more wiser ;)

regards hannes!
