Subject: Knoppix 6.2.1 ADRIANE beta Please find the current development version of knoppix-adriane at sorry I cannot give the url it is Klauus's own server. If anyone has an ftp site where I can upload the knoppix-adriane beta with latest orca and hardware support please let me know. Changes to 6.2: - Kernel 2.6.32.2 - speechd uses libao/alsa instead of oss - ocropus ocr version 0.3 (used by adriane-ocr) - new network-manager configuration in "settings" (Internet) - general updates of Debian packages - probably more, that I forgot. ;-) Please let me know if you get along with the new adriane network setup. Short summary of usage of knoppix-networkmanager: The first menu displays all connections configured in /etc/network/interfaces (you may want to copy your existing /etc/network/interfaces over the almost empty version in the live system first). On top of the list is a general connection information, on bottom an entry which allows you to configure a new connection. When selecting an existing entry (if there is one), you get a menu with all configured options, and when selecting one, you can edit it. You will be asked for saving confirmation when leaving the connection editor, while renaming works without confirmation. Currently, only LAN and WLAN connections (wpa, wep or open) can be configured with this tool, the "modem" entry currently does nothing, but will also be used for broadband cable or mobile modems in later versions. With kind regards -Klaus Knopper |
