I haven't tried that, yet. But I guess I'll have to do it now...

I am actually able to get another kind of an error message by unloading
and reloading the dvb_ttpci module with rmmod/modprobe:

saa7146: unregister extension 'dvb'.
saa7146: register extension 'dvb'.
ACPI: PCI interrupt 0000:00:09.0[A] -> GSI 10 (level, low) -> IRQ 10

Does that give any more hints about what's going on?
