I might try playing around with the firmware later. For now, I've noticed that I'm seeing the following in dmesg:

[ 3.812719] usb 5-2: not running at top speed; connect to a high speed hub

Hello,

I've noticed that when I connect via VPN, I can no longer browse the web on my local machine. It appears that I'm using my work networks DSN, so it makes sense that it wouldn't be able to...

I changed the command that the shortcut runs to:


/usr/sbin/sshstart "-p 512"

I then ran it, but it's still using port 22:


knoppix@Microknoppix:~$ sudo netstat -tulpn
Active Internet...

I found the menu item in Preferences / Start SSH Server, and it seems to work, but I'd like to know why my other command didn't work and how I could change the default port.

Hello,

I'm trying to start ssh, but I get a faile message.


knoppix@Microknoppix:~$ sudo /etc/init.d/ssh start -p 22
Starting OpenBSD Secure Shell server: sshdsshd: option requires an...

Forester,

I tried out running knoppix briefly as a live cd on my wife's laptop, but I'm mainly running it installed on the HDD of my old Dell desktop, that's where I'm seeing this problem.

Hello,

I can't find any of my Windows boxes that are connected to my wireless router by hostname, but the ip address works fine.

Are you using the WN111V2 and the ath5k drivers? How do you get it to do that, since the driver is in the kernel? Or do you mean the ath5k firmware? I'm not sure how you would do that either,...

Krishna,

I tried hitting cancel, but it immediately went to disconnected status. I've roll back to the 2 part firmware, it seems like it might work slightly better.

-Charlie

For what it's worth; I've been using the newer, one part firmware overnight; but it hasn't helped.

Hello,

I'm having problems with my wireless connection going down using the driver that's built into the knoppix 6.4.4 kernel. It generally will stay up for a few hours then it no longer works,...

Thanks, Forester, you clarified things quite a bit.

I've actually installed to my hdd. The main reason I wanted the logs to go to my HDD was so that I could post snippets of them to try to...

If you're running off the live CD, at the boot prompt, type "knoppix" and hit enter. If you install to your hdd, it appears that the default is not to run the screen reader. I am fully sighted and...

Werner,

I guess I'm note clear on what I should rename syslog-knoppix.conf to.

I renamed syslog-knoppix.conf to syslog.conf
and renamed the existing syslog.conf, so I'd still have it around.

Hello,

I'm starting a new thread for this issue to hopefully make it easier to follow in the future.

I'm trying to configure logging on my box. I've installed knoppix 6.4.4 on my hdd.

Based...

Thanks Forester.

I was figuring synaptic could work with a .deb file because it shows up in the context menu (right click) of the .deb files, at least it did with 6.4, I haven't looked yet in 6.2....

Hello, I'm able to refresh and get stuff to work, but I'm currently running Knoppix 6.2 instead of Knoppix 6.44. The earlier kernel appears to play nicer with my wireless adapter. I'm still...

Hello, Perhaps I should have posted this question in a different forum, it's not necessarily related to coming from Windows. It appears that CompizConfig is what provides this functionality and...

Hello, I'm trying to install rdesktop and claws. I'm running 6.4.4 off a live cd. I've added Binary (deb) http://us.debian.org/debian lenny main to my repositories, it is enabled. I didn't...

var/log is empty, no syslog.

Hello, I'm running Knoppix 6.4.4 LXDE and I see that you can send apps to other virtual desktops, but I can't figure out how I switch desktops? For what it's worth, when I ran this live disk on my...

Thanks, but this old Dell 8200 isn't going to boot off a thumb drive.

Charlie

For what it's worth, I downloaded rdesktop-1.6.0.tar.gz and tried to do a ./configure, I see:

checking for stdlib.h... yes
checking for string.h... yes
checking for memory.h... yes
checking...

I've found several postings on how to do this, but they seem to only apply to older versions of Knoppix. How do I save my liveCD settings to thumbdrive with 6.4.4?

-Charlie

Hello,

I'd like to remote desktop into my work PC from knoppix. I've got the VPN working, but it doesn't look like there's any rdesktop on knoppix. From reading internet postings it appears...
