I still use Knoppix 5.1.1 and 5.3.1, as 6.0.1 seems to remove a large number of useful features, eg, sshd.

Knoppix, used to be the gold standard, now its slipping.

I’ve taken your advice and installed Knoppix. It works almost 100%. The one really obnoxious thing for me is, the window decorations have these weird streaky bars across them, and I can’t figure out how to change the window theme. the Openbox window decoration manager doesn’t actually change it. Do you know how to actually change the window manager theme?

Nice review,as always,prof Claire.
How about viewing YouTube- is flash enabled in Knoppix ?
Do we have to jump thru hoops to get flash working?
