I've got the same problem with my geforce 440 GO. It sounds like it can't be done.

Well, it can, under Windows, so why not under Linux?

Can be done in linux but the drivers for the geforce don't seem to be on the knoppix live dvd. You can do a install and then aptget them I guess but that kinda defeats the purpose of having a live dvd.
