Starting To Use Knoppix
I just dnldd KNOPPIX onto a cd-rom for the live disc .iso version, and dropped it into a Dell Beige tower with;
512 RAM, P III, 650mhz, 1-40g hdd Master 1-80g hdd Slave, ATI 3D RagePro AGP 2X, Creative SB Live! Gameport, 3COM EtherLink 10/100 PCI. It took me three boots, but I think it said that it could not load the AGP Modules, whatever they are, but I suspect it's my vid drivers..right? I like the colors on the boot and the penguin, and it looks all good until I get to the intro page, if I can call it that, as I've not seen it yet. It's all messed up like the resolution is set incorrectly or the refresh rate is wrong. I have the vid set at 1024 x 760, 32 bit color. 60~ refresh rate. What am I doing wrong? I don't find much on Knoppix in the "Similar Threads" area Be kind...I am very new to Knoppix (30 minutes so far!), but decently versed in XP. |
What version of Knoppix did you download? I have had best luck with Version 3.7 not 3.9 on the OEM machines and older machines I have used it as a rescue disc on. 3.9 has given me video errors on most of the machines I have tried it with. Good luck.
