adobe flash for iceweasel(knoppix 6.2 dvd)

[Capricorny]

6.7 turned out to be a big disappointment. Why can't I move a window??? Chrome still doesn't have
flash?? I know as a linux user, I have to do things manually, but this is too much. I may switch to
Ubuntu or Fedora.

I will say it is faster.

The default effects are really annoying.

1. If you can't move windows, there's surely something wrong on the hardware side. Wrong burning for example, or very special driver problems. What makes you believe this is the distro's fault?
2. Starting Knoppix with cheat code no3d will keep Compiz out of the way. No special effects.
3. With Compiz enabled, it's fairly easy to make behavoir less fancy, CompizConfig settings manager on the preferences menu. You looked for and tried that, didn't you?
4. It should be rather easy to get Flash working, but you need to have persistent store in use to keep system changes. There are several alternatives for flashplayer packages now.

OK here's what I did - I booted from the 6.7 dvd to check it out. When I got in the windows didn't move unless I used the Alt key. I did like the general look of it(but was annoyed with Compiz). I did try to go to the Preferences, but couldn't exactly find how to remove it. Gave up. The cheatcode sounds like a good way for now.

I have an empy terabyte disk, so I copied everything from the dvd to the hd - just a copy/paste in windows(does that matter). Booted with: knoppix fromhd=/dev/sdb5. I got in and the windows moved! mnt-system was knoppix. It was not in its own partition, just plain
old data. Seemed to work. Then next time I tried to get in nothing worked and it said I was out
of disk space. My bookmarks were saved and I found the router. I have a 200M swap. Increase it? I got lots of space.

General question: do the directories /etc /proc/ and other reside on the hard drive at this time(so I can add directories for flash). I see softlinks to UNIONFS. I ass-u-me that means the
hard drive I used

I couldn't find syslinux.cfg, so would I have to make it? There is an isolunix.cfg. Is that the same?

I am going to stick with Knoppix. I gotta get flash. Linux mint 11 had it no problem(another
Debian). apt didn't seem to work either.

Preciate all the help guys. We linux people are nothing if not persistent.
