Thanks for the reply.

Well first it would be nice to get my Orinoco card working.
I've just downloaded the latest Knoppix and entered all the wlan network details etc.. as prompted during my hdinstall.
But my Orinoco flashes and wont connect to my network.
I'm very familiar with 802.11b so I'm sure that I've entered the details correctly.
Incidently a wired connection with Xircom Realport 10/100 works fine.

Then my sound card would also be nice (IBM tp600).

Thanks again
