Hello, I am a beta tester for the openChrome video driver project (for the VIA Technologies chipsets). https://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Openchrome/ In Knoppix: In the file: /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist-knoppix.conf Under the heading: # graphics/KMS drivers should not get autoloaded by udev The following drivers also need to be added/blacklisted: blacklist viafb blacklist vt8623fb These are for machines with the VIA Technologies video chipsets. For now I am using the KNOPPIX/update-....tar.gz method to shoehorn the file at boot, but this only benifits me and not other users. (FYI: for anyone booting Knoppix on these machines the cheatcode: nofb helps too) Here is what the file would look like with the changes: # modprobe blacklist for KNOPPIX # HP Mini 110 PC wifi w/wl.ko breaks if ssb is loaded, # but b43* requires ssb blacklist ssb # if b43* are used, wl.ko should NOT be auto-loaded # blacklist wl # graphics/KMS drivers should not get autoloaded by udev blacklist nvidia blacklist nouveau blacklist nvidiafb blacklist intelfb blacklist mbp_nvidia_bl.ko blacklist rivafb blacklist i915 blacklist radeon blacklist cirrus blacklist viafb blacklist vt8623fb Thank you for your time and consideration. Eric. P.S. I hope I got this request in time for the next release.
