saving the entire state of a process to storage such that it can start up again where it left off and not know the difference.
But what is the point to save and restore a TCP state? While local endpoint sleeps, the remote endpoint does not receive any reply. After a while it will reset the connexion, and the local endpoint will not even know. Or is it just for connexions to localhost?
One use case that comes to mind is to restore the state on a different machine. For failover or live migration.
Or 4 tuners (enough for dvb-t here in sweden) and keep the last keyframe for all channels.
Other cool stuff to do with all channels tuned: show a PIP overview with many channels, slide the picture left of right when zapping and show both channels, record everything to a 500G harddrive and have a 24h timeshift of all channels
If a mythtv wizard reads this, please implement it.
I have a relatively low powerered system (Celeron 500 MHz). I recently tried freevo and was pleasantly suprised how much faster the images, video and music applications were. My guess is that it is alot of overhead going on around the db.

We have FRA snooping on us.
If they can't handle that responsibility then they might not be the best fit for your company.

3G is not broadband!
I laughed. Or atleast sniggered.
