    KNOPPIX menu in wmaker???

    How do I get to the KNOPPIX menu when using wmaker? I can't find it...

    This is the menu that contains "save configuration" etc. -Lars.

    --I doubt wmaker is configured for the Knoppix menu. Klaus spent some time customizing KDE as the "knoppix desktop" - wmaker is supported at boot, but it's more of an add-on.

    --My guess is you'll have to use KDE for the Knoppix menu. However, there are always text-mode equivalents for those apps that don't have to run in a GUI. You can Ctrl-Alt-F1 to root, and type ' saveconfig ' - it should work.

    --If you are running from the CD, you have to use the cheat codes at boot. I think it's ' knoppix desktop=wmaker '.

    Re: KNOPPIX menu in wmaker???

    right ... just found that .. sorry, should read to the bottom of papers .. however, how does one configure or start wmaker once knoppix is hd-installed, as I have it ? Any tips ?
    It can't find a 'display' in my case [I have tried '-display :0.1', but that may have to do with multi-display - which may be a problem as well as I use a multihead capable Matrox 450 .. with one screen only though ?]

    thanx : ed
