after I started the diva driver again with
/usr/lib/divas/divas_cfg.rc
I got the output

nearly equal for all 4 controllers.
I then stared asterisk again:
asterisk -vvvgc
Here is the output:
sv3000:/etc/asterisk# asterisk -vvvgc

That is the last line, then asterisk deos not react any more.
I then can only kill asterisk.
Any idea ?
Thank you very much for your help
