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
+
<pre>
+
$python /usr/bin/hal-device-manager
+
</pre>
+
i found my alps glidepoint on /dev/input/event3
+
 
+
edit /etc/X11/xorg.conf
+
<pre>
+
$sudo gvim /etc/X11/xorg.conf
+
</pre>
+
 
+
below InputDevice "SynPad" "SendCoreEvents" insert (press 'o' in gvim):
+
<pre>
+
        InputDevice "AlpsPad" "SendCoreEvents"
+
</pre>
+
save and exit gui...
+
<pre>
+
$ sudo killall Xorg
+
</pre>
+
Notes: the 'X' in Xorg is capitalized

== Update with KNOPPIX (kpackage) never ends  --  Date:  2008-04-25    Solved:&nbsp;&nbsp;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:
+
 
+
<code><pre>
+
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
+
</pre></code>
+
 
+
The '''search''' is so you know the spelling, and the '''keep-all''' is for safety.
+
 
+
Note:  <code>aptitude help</code> does NOT show keep-all '''but'''
+
<code>info aptitude</code> ''and'' <code>man aptitude</code> 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. 
+
:  04:10, 26 April 2008 (CST)
+
 
+
'''Solved''':  I used '''''aptitude''''' to update <code>synaptic</code> and <code>kpackage</code> 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:
+
<code><pre>
+
Modules loaded:
+
broadcom 6912 0 - Live 0xeetc
+
bnx2 143260 0  - Live 0xeetc
+
libphy 23296 1 - broadcom, Live 0xeetc
+
</pre></code>
+
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
