Cannot upload images

I tried to upload pictures I took of my Twinhan VP-1030C but it failed with the following error:

Internal error
From LinuxTVWiki
Could not copy file "/tmp/phpASqZa6" to "/var/www/wiki/images/temp/4/46/20050310231202!Twinhan_VP-1030C_Front.jpg".

Twinhan / Brooktree 1020a with Debian Sid and Kernel 2.6.14

I tried to install my DVB-S card on Linux: I set up my kernel with the needed modules and restart, but the kernel hangs up
if the card was recognized.

Output of lspci -v (only bt878 relevant devices)

Which settings I need for this card? (maybe any service is the actuator for the kernel hangup)
