Maybe timing has changed slightly (for whatever reason).
Try to optimize your DiSEqC setup. This might speed-up tuning:

full DiSEqC sequence:
S19.2E  11700 V  9750  [E0 10 38 F0] [E1 10 38 F0] [E1 10 38 F0]
S19.2E  99999 V 10600  [E0 10 38 F1] [E1 10 38 F1] [E1 10 38 F1]
S19.2E  11700 H  9750  [E0 10 38 F2] [E1 10 38 F2] [E1 10 38 F2]
S19.2E  99999 H 10600  [E0 10 38 F3] [E1 10 38 F3] [E1 10 38 F3]
[...]

I have inserted a DiSEqC tester into the sat cable and can see that
when switching polarization it doesn't send the correct DiSEqC commands,
because the tester still displays the previous polarization. Sometimes
the switching does work, sometimes not. There are even cases where
some of the other LEDs on the tester light up, like "Reply OK", which,
I believe, indicates that the DiSEqC sequence actually sent is broken
in some way.

I am using the exact same diseqc.conf with VDR 1.3.5 as I do on my
other machine with the DVB driver on SuSE 7.3, kernel 2.4.10.
When I switch to not using DiSEqC (just 14/18V, 22kHz) everything
works just fine.

So, in order to use the latest dvb-kernel driver in a DiSEqC environment,
something needs to be fixed here.
Yep, this was the most important observation.
I have a multiswitch and this is my diseq-setting.
