It is working now!
The first problem seems to be that FF3 has a problem with DSA signature: 
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=452712
The second problem was that my installed Java JRE had a keytool which was not 
able to combine the option -keyalg RSA and -sigalg SHA1withRSA correctly. It
generated a key but my CA Startcom said MD5 is no valid algorithm. After an
update from JRE 1.5.0.16 to 1.6.0.7 and running the keytool with the following
commands it is finally working now:

1. keytool -genkey -alias some-time -dname "cn=Marko Sacher, ou=some-time, 
o=some-time, l=Essen, s=Nordrhein-Westfalen, 
c=DE" -keystore .keystore -validity 365 -keyalg RSA -sigalg 
SHA1withRSA -keysize 2048
2. keytool -certreq -alias some-time -file 
ns.some-time.de.csr -keystore ./.keystore
3. keytool -import -file ca.crt -alias startcom.ca -keystore .keystore
4. keytool -import -alias startcom.ca.sub -file 
sub.class2.server.ca.crt -keystore .keystore
5. keytool -import -alias some-time -file 
ns.some-time.de.signed.crt -keystore .keystore

Important: alias in command 5 has to be equal to alias in command 1!!!

The problem is solved for me but I think it is still a good idea to make FF3
accept the certificates I posted before with DSA signature.
