ude this theorem
let r be the smallest solution of n^x \equiv -1 \pmod p, then the solutions of n^x \equiv -1 \pmod p are (2k+1)r, and all the solutions of n^x \equiv 1 \pmod p are 2kr

so we know that:
0=2^p+2^q=2+2^q \pmod p
2^{q-1}=-1 \pmod p
2^{p-1}=1 \pmod p

so:
q-1=(2k+1)r
p-1=2lr
on the other hand:
q-1=2ms
p-1=(2n+1)s

so
{p-1 \over q-1}={2l \over 2k+1}={2n+1 \over 2m}
Contradiction
so p=2,q=3 p=2,q=2
thx
