Hi nogod:

You may want to download smartftp http://www.smartftp.com I used it for the download and I had no problems. It does auto resume which kind of works well when you have issues like the ones you describe.

Also I uploaded it into eDonkey/eMule, so if you have that you can get it there too.

Hi nogod:

Another possible tool (and one that is on virtually every linux distro) is wget.

Open Konsole and type "wget -c" and then paste in the url to mediapack and hit enter.

If the download is interupted for any reason, you can just hit the up arrow on the keyboard, select the command you gave to download mediapack, hit enter, and it will resume where it left off. Very reliable.

We are creating a remastered version of Knoppix 3.2 containing more than 200 multimedia apllications only from unstable and experimental sources.
We use fluxbox as a window manager for his low consuming hardware and the little space of disk it takes. Included in multimedialinux is cinelerra, moonlight3d and jazz++ , that are not already .deb packetized. We are going to add more as soon as we resolve some problems of libraries that conflicts ( basically many programs are dfepending on libvorbis0a wich you have to remove to install libvorbis0 that many other programs require ).
If you want I can upload the iso to your site for having better feedback.
By the way, our mastering wrtk is based on the istructions we posted in WORKING INSTRUCTIONS post by Marco Ghirlanda. These instructions seems to produce a high quality knoppix, as fast as the original. Fell free to ask any question you want to know.
Keep spreading opensource philosophy and soon we will have a better world

Hope it helps, Marco Ghirlanda [email protected] [email protected] [email protected]

If you are able to get a host for this, please post a link when it's done. Sounds interesting. Thanks.

Have you guys looked at sourceforge.net?

It seems to be a pretty nice setup to me.

I am planning to move MediaPackKnoppix to sourceforge sometime in the next because of bandwidth restrictions on my end (I'm currently providing the FTP access for this project).

I believe SourceForge is a good place because it seems to promote interactivity between the developers, contributors, and users.

fair enough... a new release is on its way.....

Just a quick note to see how this project is going?
I work in print production and I am thinking of making a pre-press version of Knoppix and was wondering if you have a list of packages on this distro?

Hi Rono64!

OOO, a prepressKNOPPIX, sounds great!

Regards,

Yeah, I think it would serve a need also, I could clear out some programs that would never be used like the games and replace them with how-to manuals and guidlines for output etc.
