help with Knoppix, new to linux

randruff · 01-30-2005, 03:46 AM

Recently i started using knoppix and i have no idea what i am doing. For some reason, knoppix will not recognize my wireless card in my laptop. I have a netgear super-g wireless card which, from what i understand, uses the prism 2 chipset. I have no idea how to get this working. Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks!

Knoppix is more of a liunx trial rather than an actual os you would want to use all the time. if you want linux i recommend Red Hat or Mandrake, both of which are avaliable at www.linuxiso.org
