Hello Neo-Rio,

Maybe your soundcard is available at /dev/dsp2 (a hint
by Mr Knopper himself some time ago). (Or, if I remember it
wrong, maybe /dev/dsp1?).

I was experiencing the same problems with a Philips webcam
with a build-in USB microphone, but I haven't plugged in
the camera recently because it is broken.

But I find this annoying too, for many programs asume the
soundcard is /dev/dsp.

Maybe you could plug the camera in after loading Knoppix.
But maybe some things need to be configured at startup time?
