hallo Knoppers! i have tried this good cd-based distro and still being astonished cos of how easily it did configure my devices.
but, i wanna know where it keeps the files for the configuration of devices.
i couldnt find the files for Xfree86 or alsa in the /etc.
this is mainly wot matters for me. becasue if i had to configure a lot of machines with linux, it should be interesting doing cut&paste of this files into them.
cheers,
pacho

The XF86Config file is:
/etc/X11/XF86Config-4

(I don't know about alsa)

I boot the cd on the machine, and set the hd to read/write mode and copy the knoppix created XF86Config-4 file to the /etc/X11 directory and X is setup as it was running, if needed just boot with proper cheat-codes for your video and monitor and once running save the knoppix file, a very nice X utility.

HTH
