Thank you for pointing me on "strace".
I mounted a hard disk, because I haven't got an USB-Stick.
And do:
$ strace -f -F -v -s 128 -o /mnt/test/hwsetup.trace \
  hwsetup -v >/mnt/test/hwsetup.output 2>&1

It works fine, even hwsetup won't hang, it runs thru and no error occurs.
I'm not sure if I should be happy or not. ;-)

I can't see any useful information in hwsetup.trace. Perhaps anybody
is interested in this output to look over. I have uploaded it on:

http://www.htw-dresden.de/~s7854/public/hwsetup.tar.gz

Hwsetup still hangs without strace. :-(

Erik
