Some BUGS Found in 5.3.1 liveDVD
List V5.3.1/DVD bugs here.
Terminal Server -- Est: Sat Apr 12, 2008 Solved: Mon Apr 14, 2008
- I was wrong: the Knoppix 5.3.1 Terminal Server does work: cf: http://s94002264.onlinehome.us/grub/pxe531.jpg
Touchpad slow -- Date: 2008.04.24 Solved: 2008.04.24
- 2008.04.24 - Touchpad very slow!!! 1st off thanks to everyone who contributed to knoppix. On to the matter at hand. Same laptops running >= 5.1 were used as reference. Temporary solution: edit /etc/X11/xorg.conf
to find touchpad
$python /usr/bin/hal-device-manager
i found my alps glidepoint on /dev/input/event3
edit /etc/X11/xorg.conf
$sudo gvim /etc/X11/xorg.conf
below InputDevice "SynPad" "SendCoreEvents" insert (press 'o' in gvim):
InputDevice "AlpsPad" "SendCoreEvents"
save and exit gui...
$ sudo killall Xorg
Notes: the 'X' in Xorg is capitalized
Update with KNOPPIX (kpackage) never ends -- Date: 2008-04-25 Solved: 2008-05-22
- When I try to update or install software using the liveDVD of 5.3.1 KNOPPIX 2008-03-26 with
persistent /home and system area I cannot get it to work.
If I go to the 'Knoppix penguin' > "Utilities' > 'Manage Software in KNOPPIX (kpackage)' I get Synaptic instead.
After I update, mark, and tell it to update/install it never quits. The little bar just goes back and forth and no error message. I let it go all night once.
So I tried aptitude and got PYSOL installed. Using the ROOT shell:
aptitude keep-all
aptitude update
aptitude search pysol
aptitude install pysol
aptitude install pysol-cardsets
aptitude install pysol-sound-server
aptitude install pysol-sounds
aptitude keep-all
exit
The search is so you know the spelling, and the keep-all is for safety.
Note: aptitude help
does NOT show keep-all but
info aptitude
and man aptitude
both do.
So I use the liveDVD of 5.3.1 KNOPPIX 2008-03-26 with persistent /home and system area and boot from the DVD drive and I can update my software. WOW.

Solved: I used aptitude to update synaptic
and kpackage
and after that they work too.
Terminal Server - Broadcom Nic -- Date: Sept 4, 2008
Broadcom bcm4401 nic, HP nx6310 will not load from Terminal Server. Fine with V 5.1.1 Works fine with my Intel based nics, tried many times, do not think fault lies with my building of miniroot.gz etc. Device works fine when booted from CD or DVD.
When Teminalserver client loads get this error:
Modules loaded:
broadcom 6912 0 - Live 0xeetc
bnx2 143260 0 - Live 0xeetc
libphy 23296 1 - broadcom, Live 0xeetc
There are 4 more lines at the end but I do not think they are to do with loading nic modules but in summery they are nfs, nfs_acl , lockd and sunrpc. I am then at the knoppix text prompt.
Other Comments
1. When I looked at the changelog today (2008.04.25) nothing was there about DVD 5.3.1
