it seems that i solved some problems, one question, why i have to compensate the bed manually and put the values in the bed.g file? it should make the compensation all the time before to start a new job, isn't it?

Version 0.78 firmware is very old now. It's time for you to upgrade to something more recent.

Assuming you updated your config.g file for version 1.09, you need to send T0 to select the head first. If you didn't update your config.g file, then it's probably T1 that you need.

M563 P0 D0 H1 ; Define tool 0
G10 P0 S-273 R-273 ; Set tool 0 operating and standby temperatures

You are defining the hot end as tool 0 (the P parameter in the M563 and G10 commands), so you need to activate Tool 0. Here are some ways of doing it:
1. Send T0 via Pronterface, or via "Send Gcode" on the web interface.
2. Look at the "Heater 1" status on the web interface. It will show the status as Off. Click on it so that it changes to Active.
3. Putting a T0 command at the end of config.g may work (I haven't tried it with 1.09).
4. I recommend that you also include T0 near the start of your slic3r start gcode, to ensure that the head is selected when you start a print.

what i dislike abaut repetier host is: even if it uses slic3r for slicing it doesnt show layer changes on zombies webinterface. but using slic3r alone does, just easyer to see all information abaut the print.

Well, I know the web interface has a glitch right now where if the 1st layer height is 0.5mm it won't show layer changes right..... maybe repetier host is using 0.5mm for the first layer? That should be fixed in the next release.
Honestly, I don't see much point in repetier (For a Duet PCB system) other than 3D gcode previews outside of slic3r. But even then I've found that some free gcode simulators are better ways to preview the gcode anyways.

I dont know ,but i thought it used slic3r settings for layer hight? ,i have first layer hight set to 100% of the rest and have never printed above 0.3mm layer hight.
But slic3r 1.2.6 has preview aswell now so i use it mostly ,still miss estimate print time on it tho

1. Have you sent a T0 command to enable the hot end?
2. Does the LED near the hot end connector light up when you tell then hot end to heat up?
3. If yes to (2), check the 6-pin hot end connector. IMO it's not a very good connector (assuming RRP hasn't changed it since my Ormerod 1 kit). It's quite easy to fail to push the pins fully home into the shells. Another possibility is poor crimp connections on the pins.
