Hi,
Fabian mentioned that the above problem was a bug. Is there a solution or will an install OTHER than beginner install work?

I think I manage to solved it already.
Ok here is what I do, I installed knoppix with beginner mode. After the installation finished, I log in as root. I went to the KUser and set my user account to have all the permision. And viola I don't need to configure the network card now when I log into my user account.
But I haven try rebooting it yet, I'll let you know the result once I do that.

I'm pretty new to Linux, but had the problem you describe and needed a quick solution. Below is what I did. Assuming that you were talking about a static IP:
1) create a file called, say, "mystartup" down in /etc/init.d
2) put these two lines in the file:
ifconfig eth0 [your static IP number] netmask 255.255.255.0 broadcast [first three fields of static IP].255 up
route add default gw [put your gateway server here]
3) save the file, make sure it is readable and executable
4) as root, start SysV-Init Editor (from KDE menu->System). Save your current config (just in case).
5) From available services, grab mystartup and drag it over to an appropriate position in Runlevel 5
6) Save it, reboot
That's it -- now, what is a better way?
