Looks like a clash in libraries ? Or a memory problem I noticed you only 
had 30 MB as memory is that correct or a wrong setting??

"Kernel command line: root=/dev/mtdblock0 mem=30M"

It seems to me like a little low on memory. I would expected it to have 
about 64MB of memory not 32MB.

Yep, but if you got some connection back you'd like to continue watching 
without hassle ;-). Anyway with a GUI the user would have a choice of 
stopping the application and without ...... well you know ;-)
