RADEON 7500 IN KNOPPIX WORKS BUT ONLY IN LIVE MODE(very strange)
 

alright heres my situation. ive been using knoppix hd install for some time and love it. however like ALL distros, my radeon 7500 would not get detected and i would get horrible 3d performance. today i acciedentally had my knoppix cd in the tray and it booted. while it was booting i paid careful attention to the text and noticed something similar to this:

AGP Bridge Detected
video = Radeon QW(75000) using x(radeon) server.

so i let it boot into kde and tried a 3d game(chromium) and was surpassed to see that i was getting 3d accelerted graphics.

Why did it detect my gpu while im using live mode and not after after i do an hdinstall???

plez help

um ok let me get the ball rolling. what if i copy a certain directory during live mode and paste it into the hd install. maybe my card would work then????
