Hi,
Last night my system (DVB-S2 Hauppauge card/Liplianin driver/Kerner2.6.27.10 (64bit OpenSuse) /l vdr 1.7.9/xine-ui with vdpau) was working fine, but this morning I cannot watch TV and get these errors. It wasn't very windy last night, but I am wondering what the symptons are if the dish becomes misaligned, or the LNB fails? Unfortunately I don't have another receiver to test it.

If the dish is not aligned you will not be able to get a lock. Unfortunately there's not a single answer to diagnose your problem, you'll have to use process of elimination to track down whats actually wrong. However, I would start with the easy stuff such as reload drivers, restart app, or reboot the pc before hassling with hardware.
