I would like to see *the exact messages*. Cut-and-paste from a terminal
window would be ideal. Not summaries; I can't search through the source
code for summaries. Thank you.

It seems that some kind of hardware error was the reason. My harddisk is gone
while I was trying this (and other) stuff, 'messages' got filled with bad block errors.
Sometimes 'recycling' old components is not a real good idea.
Now with a new disk and installation everything works as supposed.

Anyway thanks for the help !

Oliver
