Dear Christian,

r.mapcalc or r.mapcalculator should work.


Just some ideas (which you might have tested already, but anyway... ):

1. check the range of your "dgm" and "geb" data to be sure that both
have "valid" values

r.info -r dgm
r.info -r geb

(or use r.describe to list all values contained in your maps)

2. check the computational extent in you LOCATION:

g.region -p

or why not set directly to match the extent of one of your maps:

g.region rast=dgm
