I was going to respond earlier, but I've tried to inform the OP previously that knoppix, although based on debian, does not correspond to a debian distro.

Try a knoppix CD (you can download the image and burn one yourself). Use this and in 15 minutes you have a fully configured Debian system. Painless. You might also try Lindows or Xandra (you pay for these but their features may be work it). Same idea. BTW, how about more dignified language for post titles? -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
