Abstract: In commutative differential geometry the
Fr\"olicher-Nijenhuis bracket computes all kinds of curvatures and
obstructions to integrability. In \cit!{3} the Fr\"olicher-Nijenhuis
bracket was developped for universal differential forms of
non-commutative algebras, and several applications were given.
In this paper this bracket and the Fr\"olicher-Nijenhuis calculus will be
developped for several kinds of differential graded algebras based on
derivations, which were indroduced by \cit!{6}.

Keywords: Non-commutative geometry, derivations, Froelicher-Nijenhuis bracket, Kaehler differentials, graded differential algebra
