dmesg is a comand line utility that prints thernel log buffer. Just type 
'dmesg' on the command line.

In order to get a meaningful output for kernel oopses you also have to 
resolve symbols. ksymoops is a nice tool for doing this, it's shipped 
with all common distributions. So if you get a oops please always post 
the output of this command:

$ dmesg | ksymoops

Then you inserted dvb-core twice.
You can remove the module using rmmod <modulename>.

Go to the appropriate directories before insmod'ing a module, vp310.o is 
in DVB/driver/frontends/, skystar2.o is in DVB/driver/skystar2/.

You can configure your syslogd so that it prints all kernel messages 
into /var/log/messages. See the configuration file /etc/syslog.conf for 
details, for an explanation of the used syntax type 'man syslog.conf'.

good luck,

Holger
