Hi group, Just tried Knoppix 3.2Beta. I have a Fujitsu-Siemens Liteline laptop with a 500Mhz AMD-K6-III, 60Mb RAM, trident cyberblade i7/DSTN 4Mb RAM with 800x600 TFT, 5Gb harddisk and touchpad. Just so you know...
I'm impressed by the look of it and am pretty sure that it runs fine on a typical desktop, BUT My screen is shifted three pixels right. Under Debian, I can't do better without using the framebuffer. My mouse doesn't work unless I specify 'wheelmouse' which results in my mouse pointer flashing over the screen and clicking when I don't even touch buttons. Never had this in Debian, unless I just had booted into windows. Hard poweroff always fixed this, but not with Knoppix. Furthermore: D*MN, so sloooooooooooow. Luckily, I don't _have_ to use KDE. The thing is, that with my mouse problem, it's not useable, :-( Frankly, I'm a bit dissapointed. I'm afraid I expected Knoppix to autodetect everything. Probably it almost does, but I'm not seeing it. Maybe if I had had many problems with Debian I might be impressed with what Knoppix _does_ autodetect (USB, although nothing attached, PCMCIA ethernet)... Don't get me wrong: they did a marvelous job... I'm sorry it doesn't work that well on my machine. If anyone has comments, please reply.
