Current status of knoppix on Dell machines?

[baldyeti]

Hello, I find it embarrassing when handing over a knoppix CD to someone
to have to warn them not to try it on a Dell computer. Thats's because
problems of lost bios settings have occured iin the past if memory serves.
Is this problem resolved in more recent betas? Say 3.3 or with 2.4.22 kernel?
If not which are the affected models, and what's the cure if anyone
encounters it?

Thanks in advance,
