I've sometimes seen a similar behavior with my DST-CI card (VP-1030 aka Smart TV Satellite): the card was not locking properly using szap. At that time, I've fixed this problem by increasing the dst_wait_dst_ready msleep delay to 5ms instead of 1ms. On the other hand, I cannot reproduce the problem today with the 1ms delay. My card locks perfectly with the small delay. Needless to say, I'm a bit puzzled. The only thing that changed is the kernel: I've upgraded from 2.6.9 to 2.6.11 So I may be completely wrong, but it may be worth a try in your case. HTH
