Hello,
I recently got the 3.8 Version of Knoppix, it is great!
..but (you knew this part was coming, right?)
1) It seems that the firmware for my Intel ipw2100 is out of date on the CD. The kernel driver expects version 1.3, knoppix ships with 1.2
(I remastered Knoppix to fix this, but I thought I should at least mention it somewhere so that it can be fixed in an upcoming version of Knoppix)
2) Knoppix doesn't use any CPU frequency scaling by default, this shortens my battery life significantly.
I fixed this by adding this to my knoppix.sh:
cat /proc/cpuinfo | grep 'Intel(R) Pentium(R) M processor' && (modprobe speedstep-centrino; modprobe cpufreq_ondemand; echo 'ondemand' > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_governor)
3) Knoppix doesn't support my laptop's native resolution of 1280x800 (I know, it is a weird reolution, it's a "Wide screen" laptop)
I am exprimenting with adding this modeline:
Modeline "1280x800" 83.91 1280 1312 1624 1656 800 816 824 841
4) It allso doesn't recognize the Geforce 5200 GO as a NVidia card either, I will post the output of lspci -v later (can't right now, I'm (supposed to be) working)
Well, that was all, I hope this gets picked up by someone, it would make Knoppix more useable on my laptop (without me having to do all the remastering)
Hmm.. it seems time is a slippery thing. It slips through your fingers faster than anything...
But, as promised; here is the output of lspci -v:

So, as I said, the NVidia videocard is not recognized as a NVidia card. Instead Knoppix uses the vesa X driver
