If you take a close look during the bootup process, shortly after Knoppix gives you the "Welcome to KNOPPIX HD-installation!" message (use your scroll lock key to halt the process and the "any" key to resume ), you might see lines like this:

Found hardware profile in /etc/modules-2.6.5.
Copying hardware profile to /etc/modules.


So try making your changes to /etc/modules-2.6.5 and they should "stick."

That whole "alias" business in /etc/modutils is kind of a mystery to me. If you know of a site that explains it, please post.
