Bootable CD with a collection of GNU/Linux software.
About:
KNOPPIX is a bootable CD with a collection of GNU/Linux software, automatic
hardware detection, and support for many graphics cards, sound cards, SCSI
devices, and other peripherals. It can be used as a Linux demo,
educational CD, rescue system, etc. It is not necessary to install
anything on a hard disk due to on-the-fly decompression.
Changes:
The Euro symbol works again in konsole, but font scanning at startup is
slow (fontconfig?). This release adds a bittorrent ncurses client and an
ALSA package update. The "knoppix testcd" option is now more verbose. The
default timings in monitor detection have changed. This may give better
results with DDC-capable monitors, but you will probably have to use
"knoppix vsync=60" for non-DDC-capable TFT displays. There have been the
usual bunch of Debian package updates.
Release focus: Minor feature enhancements
