Hello Armin,

thanks for the advice. To get the cable respoding i alreday needed to step down 
to 3Mhz, using 6Mhz always gave me an error like: Cable doesn't respond, TDO 
seems to be stuck at 1. I tried going down in steps till 100Khz, this didn't 
change the chain scan at all. I received all the time the same false device id.

Iam using a openocd usb cable from 
http://www.embedded-projects.net/index.php?page_id=256. The openocd usb design 
is around for some time, so i suspect the support in openocd and urjtag is 
quite mature.
Talking about electrical issue, since iam using the openocd usb cable on my 
Digilent Nexys2 board with has also a builtin jtag which is Usbblaster 
compatible, maybe the builtin jtag interface interferes with the external 
interface. If would attach a LA the external jtag pins, how would i see that i 
get cross talk from that internal jtag device?
