1. Download the latest rev (9-24) and see if the problems persist ( http://www.knopper.net/knoppix-mirrors/index-en.html )

2. As a workaround (yes I know it's inconvenient and bugs suck, but here you go) you can ' . .bashrc ' (from your home dir; full syntax would be ' source ~/.bashrc '. Edit .bashrc and throw ' echo "Bashrc ran" ' in there at the end to make sure.

'myconfig=scan' produces the required result except for '.bashrc'. 'My '.bashrc' has been disregarded. Any reason?

The ADSL- USB Speedtouch modem is no langer working. It has been configured according to the instructions of David Abdelli in http://david.abdelli.free.fr/speedtouch/en/index.html and has been working nicely with all the different Knoppix versions since May.
Hard to understand why no reactions ...

No other people who are feeling unhappy because losing their '.bashrc' with Knoppix 3.3?

Further thought many people are having an USB ADSL Alcatel Speedtouch. And nobody complaining Knoppix 3.3 is not allowing them to use it. Nobody is getting following message when booting Release V3.3 2003-09-22?

"
insmod: insmod: a module named atm already exists
insmod: insmod: insmod: lib/modules/2.4.22-xfs/kernel/net/atm/atm.o failed
insmod: insmod: insmod: speedtch failed
"

In Version 3.3 2003-09-24 (Small Bug Fix?) this error message is no longer there but in both versions the Speedtouch module is available : 'speedtch.o'

Any info or help will be greatly appreciated ...

Regards,

Georges.
