Hi
I'm running the live CD and have encountered a few problems.
1. My network card isn't recognised. I found the appropriate file (kernal-source-bcm5700-6.2.11-6.2.11-alt1.src.rpm), copied it to the Knoppix desktop and opened it in KPackage. Then I selected install and entered the root login (after creating one). I now get this error message:
<1-source-bcm5700-6.2.11-alt1.src.rpm';echo RESULT=$ error: cannot write to %sourcedir /usr/src/rpm/SOURCES RESULT=1
Can somebody please tell me what to do? Maybe I should drop KPackage and install via commands? If that's the case, please let me know what they are!
2. My wireless card is not recognised. I think I've found the correct config changes:
device "pcmf502rd"
class "network" module "pcmf502rd"
card "Belkin F5D6020u (rev 2)"
manfid 0x01bf, 0x3302
bind "pcmf502rd"
however, I do not have the necessary rights to save these changes in the config files. How should I go about changing this?
Many Thanks for any replies from a desperate newbie!
