Hi everyone,

I am a new comer to Knoppix and just love it. Knoppix has a lof of software for both new comers as well as advanced linux gurus. It would be great to have a version of Knoppix for Windows users migrationg to linux. It could have only the programs that are very important for the average PC user. If Some one knows how to do that by remastering Knoppix, I am sure it would become wildly popular. I have a few suggestions for that version.

- should include wireless NIC drivers for almost all known cards in the market.

- Following software programs
Adobe Acrobat reader
F-Prot antivirus
Evolution email (equivalent of Outlook)
Mozilla browser
RipperX - A cd-ripping program
Downloader for X (equivalent of GetRight for windows))
XMMS (equivalent of WinAMP)
A simple graphics program (Linux equivalent of Irfanview for windows)
A ZIP program
K3B for CD burning (with DVD burning support)
A good backup program
Openoffice
QuickTime
Realplayer
VNC
Shockwave
Gaim
gFTP
A program to play VCD, DVi and DVD files (? Mplayer)
Firestarter (equivalent of ZoneAlarm for Windows)
Good support for Palmpilot and PocketPC hotsync
iSiloX for Palm installed.
A network monitor program (like DUmeter for windows)
Other standard utilities for disk partitioning and imaging

A lot of the software currently in Knoppix is used only by advanced users, and can be removed to create space for the above software.

Please suggest other good software for this project. If there is a Linux guru out there who can do this project, it would be absolutely fantastic (I wich I knew how to do it).

UDF support (like DirectCD or InCD for windows)
