I configure phpmyadmin durign installation with the install wizard, so what seems to be the problem?

You tried to access the MySQL listening port with your browser is the problem.

No changes to my.cnf should be necessary.

Thanks works,
and I've another question but not that "vital" is it possible to view/edit databases not included in phpmyadim dir in /var/lib/mysql = the other databses created before the phpmyadmin install (I assume here I've to edit my.cnf) and I can't either create databases in phpmyadmin no privileges

phpmyadmin accesses your MySQL server, it's just a client to the server, so when you log in it'll show you whatever databases you are permissioned for.

So if you log in to phpmyadmin as root you'll see everything.
