That being said,
there's a good chance you can get your WiFi working using your Window's
driver and ndiswrapper.

You might want to try the command lspci in a terminal window. It should
tell you if Knoppix is recognizing your WiFi cards.


I'm sure that with enough fiddling it could be made to work but that
takes you off into the world of Linux land and Linux speak which I'd
really like to avoid if what I'm really trying to do is accomplish
something else.

For all that people like to disparage Windows plug'n'play, it really
works quite nicely most of the time.
