There is a big collection of links on the net, not specific to knoppix, but might be very helpful to find out about how to get hardware working etc.

It's ordered by manufactor and model and might help in many cases, perhaps it would be a good idea to make this link sticky (with exlamation mark and 'wichtig' on my system)?

- Ah! I see, I may mark it myself as 'important'. Hope this is welcomed.
