Ok, smacking it hard into my face had worked !
for everyone interested onto the solution, i have set the
following options in /etc/my.cnf:
----------------------------------
[mysqld]
port=3306
socket=/tmp/mysql.sock
set-variable = key_buffer=16M
set-variable = max_allowed_packet=16M
set-variable = connect_timeout=20
set-variable = join_buffer=1M
set-variable = record_buffer=16M
set-variable = sort_buffer=4M
set-variable = table_cache=256
set-variable = wait_timeout=28800
