OK :-). I am Andreas Schockenhoff from Germany/Hamm. I am a
Member of the elug (http://www.elug.de). I have a littel bit experience with
linux, debian, Knoppix, LTSP, fai. I like the idea to develop a free server 
for schools, but I am not a teacher or something else.

Does Knoppix autodetect this cards correct?

I have a matrox MGA G400 (102b:0525) that does not worked with 
skolelinux(P35) auto detection. (Knoppix worked fine.) 

I do not need this in this moment, because I am trying to understand 
how skolelinux work. This is only for information!
