KNOPPIX can be used as a productive Linux system for the desktop, educational CD, rescue system, or adapted and used as a platform for commercial software product demos. It is not necessary to install anything on a hard disk. Due to on-the-fly decompression, the CD can have up to 2 GB of executable software installed on it (over 8GB on the DVD "Maxi" edition).  Finally, it's done. Just in the past couple of months, there has been quite a lot of new and exciting development in the GNU/Linux world, which of course should also be present in the current Knoppix version. Even that some of the new and optional features (like the 3d-desktop beryl) are still in experimental stage. Repeatedly, new Kernel-/KDE-/OpenOffice releases have spoilt our planned release dates, but on the other hand, now all these are available in the new release as well (2GB of software on CD, 10GB on DVD).  What's new in Knoppix v5.3.1 (March 26, 2008): <ul> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Dist-upgrade to Debian/lenny (testing+unstable)</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Changes initial boot system from initrd to initramfs for easier cusmization</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Kernel 2.6.24.4 with custom modules: gspca, qemu, kvm, virtualbox, ndiswrapper, avm (untested)</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Updated wifi drivers and firmware for ipw*</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">compiz 3D windowmanager 0.7.3 with experimental compiz-fusion modules, compiz will start automatically if hardware detection recognizes the needed features of graphics adapters, use "no3d" or "3d" bot option to disable or enforce compiz</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">KDE 3.5.9, KDE 4.0 as experimental bootoption</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">ADRIANE, Audio Desktop with text-to-speech and braille support, first release (not fully complete yet), bootoption "adriane", see <a href="http://knopper.net/knoppix-adriane/index-en.html" target="_blank">http://knopper.net/knoppix-adriane/index-en.html</a></li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">cloop 2.624 realtime decompression with threads and experimental "suspend" feature</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">OpenOffice 2.3.1</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Virtualbox OSE edition</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Orca as screenreader for GTK+ programs, use "startorca soffice" for a try (in case of tiing problems with orca being to slow, try "startorca" again without parameters)</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Updated harddisk-installer "0wn" ("zero work needed")</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Updated ntfs-3g with "visible alternate data streams" extension (to discover files in other files, mount option streams_interface=visible)</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Lots of updates.</li> </ul>Full Release Notes here:    [CODE]http://knopper.net/knoppix/knoppix53-en.html  [/CODE]Homepage and more info here:    [CODE]http://www.knoppix.org/  [/CODE]Cheat Codes here:    [CODE]ftp://ftp.uni-kl.de/pub/linux/knoppix-dvd/knoppix-cheatcodes.txt [/CODE] ChangeLog here:    [CODE]ftp://ftp.uni-kl.de/pub/linux/knoppix-dvd/KNOPPIX-CHANGELOG.txt [/CODE] Download it from here (DVD Edition):     [CODE]ftp://ftp.uni-kl.de/pub/linux/knoppix-dvd/KNOPPIX_V5.3.1DVD-2008-03-26-EN.iso ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/dist/knoppix-dvd/KNOPPIX_V5.3.1DVD-2008-03-26-EN.iso ftp://source.rfc822.org/pub/mirror/knoppix-dvd/KNOPPIX_V5.3.1DVD-2008-03-26-EN.iso ftp://ftp.ntua.gr/pub/linux/knoppix/DVD/KNOPPIX_V5.3.1DVD-2008-03-26-EN.iso ftp://ftp2.skynet.be/pub/knoppix/DVD/KNOPPIX_V5.3.1DVD-2008-03-26-EN.iso ftp://ftp.knoppix.nl/pub/os/Linux/distr/knoppix/DVD/KNOPPIX_V5.3.1DVD-2008-03-26-EN.iso  [/CODE]  Other Knoppix Download Mirrors here:    [CODE]http://www.knopper.net/knoppix-mirrors/index-en.html[/CODE]</blockquote>
