Don't sound good to me. However, I believe you are using dsl instead. Not knoppix, is that true?

I think I tested DSL 3.3 on my laptop before and I don't remember the result. I need to find an environment to test for it again. I'm recently on a trip and it is very hard to find an environment that I can have total control.

One more question, your machine only have wireless network card and do not have wired network card? I only see the lo and the eth0 shown up in your output.
