I'm very new to linux infact this is my 1st time ever tryin linux out. knoppix is the holy grail for noobs like me. heres my problem.

1. when i ran knoppix from cd i herd a female coice saying "initializing.."
after i HD installed Knoppix i don't hear that anymore, however my sound does work.

2. when i set up sound themes under root they works fine. when i try to use sound themes for a new user( that belongs the Audio group + every other group) it don't work but i so have sound.

3. I searched on this forum & other sites about linux "saying i should delete root user & group" how do i make a new su so i can delete root

4. how do i set up my 3dfx voodoo 2 card with libglide2 ?


thanks in advance
