Hm, I have one Gig of Ram and 128MB swap. It's only a 4GB disk so I 
thought to save space by not creating a 2GB swap. Is this not ok in the 
fbsd world ?

The sig 11 appeared mostly when I switched virtual console. The 'other' 
  errors are vague, yes, but it's difficult for a fbsd newbie to see 
what's relevant and what not. As said, I have to learn.

Thanks,
Andreas
