Hi all,
I am trying to upgrade my set-top-box from Debian-Sarge to Debian-Etch. 
Unfortunately the LCDd 0.5.1 process on the new operating system version 
seems to get a lots of CPU power, as you can see from the top shown 
below. I tried also the 0.5.0 version and it has the same behavior. Any 
idea?
