May be, i use rather szap then, easier to handle and helds the device 
open. 

Further i can report a kernel crash now. Running dvbsnoop it crashes 
immediatly on a special PID

Steps to reproduce() the channel is on Astra19,2):

szap's channels.conf line:
HOERZU DIGITAL:10832:h:0:22000:61:62:0:0:61961
szap to that channel and 
...
Starting :
dvbsnoop 5169

=> blinking LEDs Maybe someone with more time and knowledge then me can 
reproduce that. If noone else can reproduce it it Ok too as it is my 
problem then ;)
