The "Start Samba Server" does not create proper shares. The script /usr/sbin/sambastart does not write a correct /etc/samba/smb.conf file. It has worked in Version till 4.02, but with 5.0 it does not.

UPDATE: This is not a bug. Previous behavior can be restored with a KDE panel configuration change. 
+
+
If the panel is moved to the top of the screen, hidden, and the panel-hiding buttons are removed, it does not reappear when the pointer moves to the top of the screen.

Seems that the persistant homedir does not work properly. I can create a persistant home on my USB-Stick. But the home will not be loaded on the next boot (home=/dev/sda1).

Radeon xorg driver does not work with Dell 2405FPW monitor and radeon 9250 card; when X starts the screen goes blank and is unrecoverable (alt-backspace and ctrl-alt-f2 do nothing). This worked fine in knoppix 4.0.2 and xfree86. I can use the vesa driver (knoppix lang=us xmodule=vesa) but that really limits my screen resolution.

5.) Reported by MrMoor

"knoppix bootfrom=/dev/hdc3/KNOPPIX_V5*.iso" does not work. During boot I get:
+
 
+
Accessing KNOPPIX DVD at /cdrom2.loop/KNOPPIX_V5*.iso...ERROR: Module cloop is in use
+
umount: Device or resource is busy
+
insmod: error inserting '/cdrom/boot/modules/cloop.ko': -1 File exists
+
insmod: can't read '/modules/cloop.ko': no such file or directory
+
Found primary KNOPPIX compressed image at /cdrom2/KNOPPIX/KNOPPIX.
+
ioctl: LOOP_SET_FD: Device or resource busy
+
 
+
and it continues to boot from DVD. hdc3/KNOPPIX_V5.0DVD-2006-02-25-EN.iso is -rwxr-xr-x KNOPPIX:KNOPPIX on ext3.

6.) Reported by mkrufky (mkrufky at linuxtv dot org)
+
 
+
Unable to mount Compact Flash drives connected via an IDE interface.  This worked in all Knoppix versions 3.8 through 4.0.2, I have not tried in versions earlier than 3.8.
+
 
+
7.) Reported by mkrufky (mkrufky at linuxtv dot org)
+
 
+
Missing hybrid v4l/dvb kernel modules:  cx88-dvb, saa7134-dvb, but their dependencies are all present.  This causes bugs in the cx88 driver (loud static on startup), due to some missing init code that should run in the missing cx88-dvb module.  Of course, the lack of these modules also prevents DVB operation for those devices.

8) burn successfully KNOPPIX_V5.0.1CD-2006-06-01-EN on a CD, and Knoppix V5.0 tested successfully on different machines, but cannot boot on my laptop "HP Pavilion 5000".
+
error description:
+
''enabling DMA accelerator for the hdc [HL-DT-ST GSA-4082N]
+
looking for CD in: /dev/hdc''
+
 
+
and after 3 minutes stuck, that message appear at the screen :
+
''can't find KNOPPIX filesystem, sorry, dropping you to a (very limited) shell...''
+
and a shell prompt knoppix appear...
+
 
+
9) Reported by StuartCook
+
 
+
"Start Samba Server" share creation failure (see 1 above) in 5.0 and 5.0.1.
+
 
+
Workaround: Edit /usr/sbin/sambastart, near the bottom, replace /mnt by /media
+
 
+
Now "Start Samba Server" should create disk shares correctly.
+
 
+
If this is the wrong place for this workaround; apologies.

10) Reported by Greg M. Johnson

5.01 as live CD works well with USB pen drives. A HDD install of 5.01 does not.  I noted that you create the exact same fstab, whether it be live or installed. And that's the bug! :).  The UID for /sda1 that you put into fstab is  "knoppix" in both cases. For a live boot, this is correct. For a HDD install the UID ain't 'knoppix' unless the user has created a userid of that name.
+
WORKAROUND: if one creates a userid of "knoppix" on the system, it works.
+

Intel Wireless (2200 bg) does not work on IBM T42.  It worked great with Knoppix 4.02.  ipw2200 and related modules show up with lsmod.  iwconfig shows no wirelss adaptores.
+
 
+
 
+
12) Reported by Greg Powers
+
 
+
Saved a config using Knoppix 4 to a USB drive. Booted with Knoppix 5.0.1 (CD) with myconf=scan.  Works.  Most things do work.  Great system.  However, when try to save config again it only lists the floppy as a destination option.  Can't save to USB key.  Maybe change from /mnt to /media was missed in some file somewhere?  Silly change, btw.  Sorry.
