It's likely that the default resolution & refresh are out-of-range for your monitor. What kind is it?
You can check this as follows: when Knoppix has finishd booting, try the key combination [Ctrl]-[Alt]-[+] (keypad +) to change the resolution on-the-fly -- repeated presses cycle through the available resolutions. If this works, try some of the display/VGA cheat-codes (press [F2] at boot for these).
