<div> 1) The ext2 persistent home bug (ext2 partitions not recognized properly)<br />
is still not fixed in 5.01, because of a a typo in the knoppix-autoconfig file:<br />
wrong: ext3|ext3|reiserfs|xfs) MOUNTOPTS="$MOUNTOPTS,noatime" ;;<br />
correct: ext2|ext3|reiserfs|xfs) MOUNTOPTS="$MOUNTOPTS,noatime" ;;<br />
Please find a diff in here:<br />

BTW, I found a work around fix, cf:<br />

2)knoppix splash cheatcode doesn't work, it worked with 4.0.2 version.<br />
<br />
3)difficulty to boot on some (recent) laptop: needs to use noudev and sometimes <br />
nompcmcia to start, but Konsole failed start, complain that no tty are available.<br />
<br />
4)boot process is horribly slow if a pci card with rt2500 WLAN chipset is plugged <br />
and failed on DHCP request, no problem on Cebit 5.0: card is well recognise.<br />
<br />
5)printing impossible (report from forums.knoppix-fr.org)<br />
<br />
6)module compilation is not possible (out of the box), have to have a look deeply <br />
(maybe problem with header or some links to them)<br />
Some more info: This is probably related with the Debian [http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=368544 bug #368544] as the parts missing <br />
in the headers are those supposed to be in a newcomer linux-kbuild package<br />
<br />
7)[INSTALL] mount with removable media, <br />
"Please change the -u knoppix and -g knoppix in<br />
/etc/udev/knoppix.rules, either to match the "primary user", or just<br />
remove them." <br />

8) CD-Burning with an external USB device is broken.<br />
as i posted in the forum http://www.knoppix.net/forum/viewtopic.php?t=24784<br />
there are some messages from cdrecord in the k3b failure report <br />
about missing entrys in /dev one of them about /dev/sg0 ... <br />
i looked for what was there in 4.0.2CD and found this:<br />
<code><br />

</code><br />
after creating /dev/sg0 with mknod ( using mknod without beeing absolutely sure <br />
what you are doing can lead to deleting all your data on harddisk or even worse )<br />
at least k3b simulation started working ... <br />
i will do a real burning test later ...<br />

9) ipw2200 v1.1.1 (the one in kernel 2.6.17) relies on firmware 3.0 while <br />
the Knoppix package ipw2200-nonfree only contain older firmwares. <br />
Please update ipw2200-nonfree, cf <br />
http://ipw2200.sourceforge.net/firmware.php<br />
<br />
10) Setting the timezone does not work. KDE's time applet requires the root<br />
password (should probably use ksudo instead). <br />
Workaround: sudo vi /etc/timezone, <br />
sudo cp /usr/share/zoneinfo/Continent/City /etc/zoneinfo.<br />
<br />
11) Mounting of a PCMCIA flash drive works only once. After remove/insert of the card, <br />
the following error message appears: "mount:Gerätedatei /dev/hde1 existiert nicht" (rol).<br />
<br />
12) Improvement: the CD and DVD editions miss the p7zip package.<br />
If you compress a tar archive of the Knoppix root filesystem, the result<br />
is 20% smaller than the one produced by bzip2. Definitely useful!<br />
<br />
13) Improvement: the CD and DVD editions miss the ccache package<br />
(102 KB install size). This compiler cache is the best way to recompile<br />
big projects (like the Linux kernel) in a much faster way.<br />
<br />
14) To use SD cards it currently is necessary to manually ''modprobe mmc_block''.<br />
<br />
15) Improvement: If possible include new ''ipw3945'' WLAN module.<br />
<br />
16) I use a working CD (tested on other computers). On my computer, Knoppix stops <br />
with the message "can't find KNOPPIX filesystem, sorry, dropping you to a (very <br />
limited) shell..", just as the bug 15 of Knoppix 5.0DVD. Anyway the boot option<br />
nodma does not make things work. I have found no workaround. I have got a SATA<br />
CDROM/DVD drive (Plextor 712SA).<br />
<br />
17) X won't work on some systems when using Knoppix CD 5 or Knoppix CD 4.<br />
Tried on five different systems, three notebooks, two desktop systems,<br />
but xorg's X failed to start and complained about missing files. Integrity<br />
of CD tested and okay.<br />
<br />
18) In KNOPPIX_V5.0.1CD-2006-06-01-DE.iso (MD5 checked OK) *boot/isolinux/isolinux.bin<br />
is corrupt or hash is wrong in md5sums file. <br />
<br />
19) Apache2 returns "Partial Content" when accessing a local (127.0.0.1) page.<br />
Small files works, larger files (> Mtu ??) not. <br />
