yeah rastafarai...
after 4 reinstallation (always the same way, first deleting all files from www folder then re-uploading XOOPS 2.0.6 then reinstalling it after getting rid of the tables), i finally succeeded. I had several different weird sometimes scary error messages, but this 4th times, everything went well and i'm currently taking care of my preferences and design...
again, long live xoops... :p
