The knoppix hd install doesn't detect my usb mouse, while running it off of cd works great.



I tried doing an apt-get update
and an openoffice 1.1 install
the openoffice 1.1 is really nice! it worked!

(though I had to use it without my mouse, as I couldn't figure out the XF86Config)

and then I thought about doing an apt-get upgrade just for the heck of it... and then my hd got corrupted!

It passed a bad block detection...


Then I tried the debain install mode.
It didn't startx (knoppix mode did)
and network didn't work.. even when I modprobed 3c59x and did the netcard config

So... I just figured out that I have two net cards... but it didn't detect either...
a 3c905 pci anda 3c509 isa

its an amd k6 mmx
at 200 mhz
on a motherboard with the old AT keyboard... luckily I have one of those... and no ps2 ports..
but it does have integrated usb... but I don't have the riser... and I put in an extra usb card that I had lying arround.

anyway... I'm going to try the knx-installer next... then the knoppix-installer again and try to fiddle with settings.

(oh, debian mode, I'm going to fiddle with X a bit more before giving up)
