Hi,

I am still trying to get my vdr1.2.5 on SuSE 8.1 running vom tty8.
Another feature, I have figured  out is, that  vdr only get's the input 
when started as superuser after graphical login via KDE as a normal 
user, then opening a shell and changing to superuser and running 
"runvdr" without funktion -t...tty8.
When trying the same in runlevel 3 - login as normal user (not  user 
vdr), than changing to superuser and runing runvdr - vdr again doesn't 
get the input allthough I am running "runvdr" without the funktion -t 
....tty8. Isn't it weard?
