Setting LD_ASSUME_KERNEL doesn't help.

you are using LFS or Gentoo or any other distribution with a nptl-only glibc. LD_ASSUME_KERNEL won't help you. Use VDR 1.3.24 and remove the nptl check in vdr.c. This version should work with nptl.
Hello everyone,
i'm experiencing the same problem with amd64. I'm using debiam-amd64/sid and they ship a nptl-only-glibc, too. So export LD_ASSUME_KERNEL doesn't work. As Sebastian suggested I removed the nptl-check in vdr.c (actually I just commented out the exit code, so vdr is complaining but running). But it seems, as if there are still problems with nptl: sometimes vdr isn't responding to any input (keys, remote control) for several minutes and then it seems to be ok again. some recordings I made are started too late, I guess about 5 mins after the 'official' starting time. As a second system I'm running a debian-i386/sarge on the same machine. That system has both nptl and linux-threads and vdr is running perfectly! So it might be, that vdr still has problems with nptl. don't you have these problems on your system, sebastian?
cheers,
Ulf
