Apparently it did not help :/ Sorry that it took a bit longer to respond 
back... it took quite a while to compile the kernel on that box... as I 
did not have the mood to see how to crosscompile on a faster amd64 box 
(remote controlled box is i386). So I had to wait for a moment where I 
don't need that box for a longer time (took the whole afternoon to 
compile). :)

Any more ideas?
