Klaus Knopper, Creator of Knoppix Talks to DistroWatch

Posted by Hemos on from the good-things-small-packages dept.

An anonymous reader wrote to us about an interview with Klaus Knopper the author/creator of Knoppix. Knoppix is "a bootable CD with a collection of GNU/Linux software, automatic hardware detection, and support for many graphics cards, sound cards, SCSI and USB devices and other peripherals. KNOPPIX can be used as a Linux demo, educational CD, rescue system, or adapted and used as a platform for commercial software product demos. It is not necessary to install anything on a hard disk. "

    Slashdot article?

    People want to know.

    While posting a exceptionally eloquent and thought provoking question to William Shatner, my 9 month old Linux box locked up. Solid!!! The GUI was hung, consoles were inaccessible, no telnet or ssh sessions, no response to any key sequences, nothing!!!

    After restarting, the logs reveal absolutely nothing wrong. It's like Windows 95 all over again. I'm really scared now and I don't know what to do.
