Bug 86390 – vdr-1.2.6-r1 start script /etc/init.d/vdr returns a false error

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED INVALID

[Description Martin Gramatke 2005-03-23 07:39:43 UTC]

When ever I start vdr, I get this error message:

----------------------------------------
lab2 ~ # /etc/init.d/vdr start
 * Caching service dependencies ...                                                                                                                                                                      [ ok ]
 * Starting vdr-1.2.6 ...
/usr/bin/show_dvb_image: no process killed
.................... timeout, if your compute is too slow enlarge waittime
 * Failed to start vdr.
---------------------------------------

Anyway vdr was started and works! So this is a false alarm.

Here is cut from the logfile /var/log/everything/current:

Changed bug status to resolved INVALID, as the ebuild does not contain a init 
script, there is nothing to fix here. Report the bug to where you got your init 
script from.
