Knoppix Linux

[surge84]

I'm new to Linux and wanted to try out Knoppix. Ok I've booted into it and it seems to be working well. All of the menus however are not english. I have the us version showing on the "task bar," but all of the programs are still listed in German I believe. Is there any way to change this? Did I get the wrong version? I downloaded from a us ftp. Any body help? thanks

hit F2 at the boot prompt and take a look at the options

You'll probably want to try knoppix lang=us. If you want to change the default screen size to > 1024x768 you do it here.

Well that worked thanks but when I restarted, my mouse and keyboard won't initialize.

Did you download the DE iso instead of the EN iso? Make sure you have the ENglish version.
