Hello to all
Firstly i would like to say hello, i'm very new to Debian, so trying to learn....
Having tried several different linux os, i decided to try Debian....right or wrong, only time will tell....lol.....I have a 3 year old laptop, so i am using that for my Linux OS.
OK my question. Is it possible to copy drivers from the Knoppix Live CD and install them into Debian Sarge? If so how would i go about doing that procedure?
If someone can help that would be great as some things on my laptop dont work at the moment "SIS Display, Touchpad etc"
Many thanks
Shihan

Installing Drivers
Wellcome to Debian...
From when I was very new to Debian, I can tell you that it is a bit of a pain to get the hang of it, but once you figure out stuff, it"s pretty much great .... Its just that you have to be willing to do a bit of digging on your own...
While I dont really get the question of copying drivers from Knoppix, since you mentioned SIS, you might want to have a look here: http://www.winischhofer.at/linuxsisvga.shtml
(I presume you are talking about SIS video drivers).
Hope this is what you were looking for....
Cheers,
Adi
