Hi;

I have an OLD ( over a year ) copy of knoppix installed on my hard drive.

I've never had a high speed connection before and today the cable guy came and hooked up my PC to a cable modem.

No surprise, he didn't know how to get it working with knoppix. I'm using the KDE desktop.

I would be much obliged if someone could tell me how to get knoppix working with the cable hookup( hopefully, before my dialup account runs out ).

Do I need to get a firewall? If so, could someone tell me the easiest (or best) option to take care of that?

Thanks much in advance

Steve
