knoppix gui x not working on AMD64 DESKTOP

Working with knoppix 6.02 live cd, works fine on my laptop, but fails to show the full desktop on my AMD64 PC. i tried changing screen=1280x1024 but the screen goes to magnified status when i start GUI interface. I tried out knoppix -nohwsetup etc but no success

Instead of typing "knoppix" at the boot screen, try the following and see if one works:

Quote:
fb1280x1024
Quote:
knoppix xmodule=vesa
Quote:
knoppix xmodule=fbdev
Alternatively, try looking here and see if any of that helps (mostly it's the same as I said): http://www.knoppix.net/wiki/Hardware...sn.27t_work.21
