 I have tried several releases of KNOPPIX. My first couple of trys were
 disasters.  But very revent;ly I did get 3.4 to print form a printer.
 Haven't tried a Internet connect yet.
But it seems that it is still quite convoluted to get things working. It
seemed like the Printer instal shound have been far easier as an
example. Yuo really had to hunt arround and there were too many steps.
AFTER all the Printer was identified correctly. WHY all the additional
steps after you mark the Identy as correct?
Shouldn't it charge ahead and install the driver??
Of course I have installed Windows on quite a few machine but installing
a printer should be "Rocket Scientist" stuff.
