Network adapter freezes knoppix during setup. Help!

[Frits Plotseling]

Since I use cable internet I had to install an ethernetcard (realtek RTL8139) and..........Knoppix dies during hardware configuring.
What can I do? (Boot command: Knoppix nonothing doesn't work )

Thanks for any relevant response.

Try to boot with failsafe xvrefresh=60 for minimal hardware detection.
