[OCLUG-Tech] Laptops and liveCD

I'd thought liveCDs were a good test too, but recently tried Knoppix 4.02 EN on my Compaq 1540ca. Worked fine as liveCD, but wouldn't run ethernets when installed on HD. This machine has a Xircom eth1 + real
modem as well as its eth0 and winmodem, so it is a bit unusual.

Runs Ubuntu Breezy OK though. Also Xandros 3.02. And that other OS...
