Hi all,

Question 1: when i boot Knoppix 3.2 my wireless Logitech USB mouse won't work. I can't move it... :(
Also, my PS2 mouse is broken.
Anyone has a idea on how to fix this prob?
I've seen pretty much posts like this one, but there was never a decent answer :(
btw, i'm a big n00b in Linux so don't start throwing all sorts of difficult Linux terms @ me :lol:

Question 2: Also when i boot i get this error in the beginning saying:
Error: Only one processor found
Is this a big problem??

Question 3: How do i install Linux Knoppix 3.2 to my hard disk? :roll:

thx guys :D

Strange that neither of your mice work.


Question 2: Also when i boot i get this error in the beginning saying:

Boot Knoppix, when you get to the boot prompt enter what I have written in bold:

boot: knopix lang=us noapic nosmp


Question 3: How do i install Linux Knoppix 3.2 to my hard disk? :roll:
