now it is working! I can create a ps-file! 
But I hardly can see the picture. It's extremely broad and it still looks
scewed up (some of the ellipses are not connected). Can I specify some option
to 'dot' to create a letter-format picture or something like that? How shall I
go to print it? I tried to convert it into a pdf, but this showed only a very
small fraction of the entire DAG (three jobs out of about 20). Any ideas?
