The other LiveCD that begins with K


a bit ago I read an article about another knoppix like distro that boasted better hardware support (knoppix doesn't like my ethernet adapter on my laptop). I believe it also started with a K, does anyone happen to know what it might have been?
I had meant to bookmark it, but I can't seem to find it anywhere.

Little looking around wouldn't have hurt. As far as Live distros go Knoppix is probably as good as any at recognizing hardware.

This is all the distros starting with "K" that LQ knows about:
K-DEMar
KANOTIX
Kate OS
Klax Live-CD
Knopperdisk
Knoppix
Knoppix-STD
knosciences
Kororaa Xgl Live CD
Kubuntu Linux

nope I don't believe so. The website doesn't quite look right... ahI found it. I got it on a newsforge feed. Kanotix is whats its called.
thanks!

[edit] Just a belated note now that I finally got some new CDs so I could burn this. It does recognize my laptops marvel/yukon NIC where knoppix failed to do so.
