	cat /proc/pci 

is usually very informative. You should also find info on the
various busses as well. But the pci will probably give you most
of what you want.

If it is a 2.6.0 without the /proc/pci legacy code, you use

	lspci

to get some info.

You can also use 

	lsmod

to find out what drivers knoppix loaded.
