Its probably the PCI-PCI transfer which crashes your box due to hardware bugs. Updating your kernel to 2.4.21-pre might help, recently some PCI quirk for ALI was added as workaround. tvtime doesn't use overlay and thus no PCI-PCI transfers happen. Same with xawtv in grabdisplay mode. Gerd -- /join #zonenkinder
