There are no other users in Knoppix, only 'knoppix'. You would have to create a new user before you can switch to it and you would have to be root to create a new user; thus the 'permission denied' error.
Use Kuser to create a new user, you will probably have to set a root password first which you can do by entering 'sudo passwd' in a terminal console.
