Thanks Simon for your comments, I will bring them in the howto. 

As you have problems with digikam ioslaves: Do you own a 32bit or a 65bit 
system? In the later case you have to modify the paths in the little script. 
Do you install under /usr/local as the tutorial suggested or in /usr ?

Regards, Jens
