Wolfi,
I would consider that a point of worry, At best it means that the second 
module is under spec, at worst a faulty module that may not show in tests.
The motherboard sets the memory timing from the chip in slot 0. If the new 
chip doesnt work in slot1 then it cant handle the timings that are set by the 
slot0 chip. By putting the new chip in slot zero you are setting slower 
memory timings. 
A quick test that may help you. Some bioses allow you to set memory speed as 
well as processor and FSB. Drop them all back and see if things are OK.
