@ Mr. Utzig

Sorry that I did reply you in German, but I was a little bit confused.
I advise you to do a search on the internet with - KNOPPIX WLAN -

The following URL contains some info concerning WLAN - KNOPPIX

@ Basti,

Don't know if this is going to help you but I'm looking around,

1. Das große Buch KNOPPIX, Data Becker Verlag, ISBN 381-5825-199, 313 Seiten inkl. 1 CD-ROM

2. Linux/KNOPPIX, Franzis' Fachverlag, ISBN 3-7723-6238-9, 240 Seiten inkl. 1 CD-ROM

3. Linux - Installation, Konfiguration, Anwendung, 6. Auflage, Addison-Wesley, ISBN 382-7318-548, 1318 Seiten, inkl. 2 CD-ROMs (KNOPPIX, SuSE)

The forum at : http://librenix.com/linux/

The following Knoppix Coocking books/recepies to do something in KNOPPIX are in Dutch, but this should not be to much of a problem for a German speaking person

To Linux afficionados,...

The upcoming weekend there will be a computerhappening in our neighbours country the Netherlands.
A new version v 3.7 of KNOPPIX can be bought during this occasion...
Perhaps a few days later it will be set downloadable???
For more info look at the KNOPPIX web.

BE PREPARED...

"Software-Patents" in Europe: The threat prevails

Soon the European Parliament and the Council of Ministers will again decide about the legalisation and adoption of so-called "software patents" in Europe, which are already used by large companies in other countries to put competitors out of business. This can lead to the termination of many software projects such as KNOPPIX, at least within Europe, because the holders of the over 30,000 already granted "software patents" (currently without a legal foundation) can claim exclusive rights and collect license fees for trivial things like "progress bars", "mouseclicks on online order forms", "scrolling within a window" and similar. That way, software developers will have to pay the "software-patentholders" for using these features, even in their own, completely self-developed applications, which can completely stall the development of innovative software for small and medium companies. Apart from this, the expense for patent inquiries and legal assistence is high, for even trying to find out if the self-developed software is possibly violating "software-patents", if you want to continue to market your software. Contrary to real patents, "software-patents" are, in the draft proposed by the commission, monopolization of business ideas and methods, even without any tangible technical implementation.

@ Mr. Ned Slider,

Thanks to those linking to my article on how to compile your own optimised boinc client for linux:

http://forums.pcper.com/showthread.php?p=3076102&postcount=3

Just a reminder that the article is also available on my website, and the latest V4.13 pre-compiled optimised linux client is now available for download, linked at the end of the article:

http://www.pperry.f2s.com/boinc/boinc-compile.html

The optimised client was compiled on Fedora Core 2 and has also been shown to work on Suse 9.1, Mandrake 10.0 and slackware 10.0.

Regards,

Ned

I've tried installing Knoppix 3.4 onto a hard disk. Both
installation options do not work with the CD-ROM I have.

I have not tried the option of copying the contents of
the CD-ROM to the hard disk. Does Knoppix still require
all RAM for a RAMdisk if this is done?

Knoppix 3.6 does horrendous things with the on-board
Matrox G200 graphics adaptor.
