Abstract
We characterise the minimum weight codewords of the p-ary linear code of intersecting lines in PG(3,q), q = p^h, q ≥ 19, p prime, h ≥ 1. If q is even, the minimum weight equals q³ + q² + q + 1. If q is odd, the minimum weight equals q³ + 2q² + q + 1. For q even, we also characterise the codewords of second smallest weight.
