Which kernel version are you using? The changelog of the kernel does not list any fixes for 2.6.17.[1-8] in that area. Here it does not work with plain 2.6.17 and - DVB-S full-featured card Rev 2.1 (stv0299) - Activy GR budget (tda8083) Btw, it works if I do a symbol_put_addr(xxx_attach) instead of symbol_put_addr(xxx_release). I think I have to do some kernel debugging...
