Well I'm pleased that you gained something out of assisting me. :-)

Actually my system is completely up to date as far as upgrades go.

I'm now inclined to think that "rc" stands for "runlevel compatibility".
In /etc/event.d there are scripts for rc0, rc1, rc2 etc etc, each of
which executes a different run level in /etc/init.d/rc. The executables
in /etc/init.d, and I quote, "Starts/stops services on runlevel
changes".

Do you think the problem might be that the TVtime software is calling
for the incorrect runlevel? If that is the case maybe the only solution
would be to get the source code and make the alteration.

Or am I talking absolute nonsense?
