[linux-dvb] [offtopic] Error 139 while loading driver

[520062039130-0001@t-online.de (Johann Hanne)]

Hi,

some days ago, I watched TV on my Linux box using the dvb driver.
Suddendly, the machine completely crashed. I rebooted it and tried
to load the driver again, but I only got these messages:

[...]
insmod dvb.o init_chan=2 pids_off=0 readfirm=1; \
)
Using /lib/modules/2.4.2-2/kernel/drivers/i2c/i2c-core.o
Using /lib/modules/2.4.2-2/kernel/drivers/media/video/videodev.o
make: *** [insmod] Error 139

Might the dvb board be defective? Or could this be a software error?

These are the syslog messages I'm getting:

Of course there was no hardware/BIOS reconfiguration...

I'm running RedHat 7.1 without any patches. And I tried different
dvb driver versions, but the result was always the same.
