Can't tweak Knoppix 7.4 LiveUSB system files in /etc/
.
Greetings, All.
With earlier Knoppix 6s and 7s, I became accustomed to making
small changes to certain system files to achieve some modest LiveUSB
'improvements'. For some reason, I seem to be locked out of the
ability to just go in and modify these files as I used to do.
Two specific files that are resisting my efforts are:
/etc/xdg/lxsession/LXDE/autostart (I want to add iceweasel), and
/etc/syslog-knoppix.conf (I want to add /var/log/syslog)
What has changed that I should know about? TIA.
This may be crude, but it works. Thanks, philo.

Status report on my Knoppix 7.4 complaints:
.
1. I have tamed Compiz to my satisfaction for now.
2. Given that, my Post #4 here now adequately fills my autostart needs.
3. I haven't a clue on how to get syslog back, and Werner's
old syslog solution doesn't work any more, either.
