#6 Re: Knopper Knocks Knotheads Posted by Anonymous (59.176.xx.xx) on Sun 11 Feb 2007 at 04:55 I was at his presentation in 2006 in Delhi. The local GNU/Linux group then sort of kidnapped him and Mark Shuttleworth for a more informal, chat about knoppix and ubuntu. (LUG-Delhi didn't participate officially this year, for political reasons). Klaus's points during the presentation were meant to raise political awareness and be amusing and interesting at the same time. Definitely a rock star of the scene; a very likeable fellow too; and his agenda makes people think. Besides that, I suspect lots of techies bless him regularly for knoppix, since it is such a dynamite rescue/install system. Eg: Coincidently, a few days before meeting him in person, I had a laptop with no floppy drive, no cdrom drive, no usb boot, no ide connector for the drive (it was a 1.5" drive) - and no OS whatsoever on it. Firing up knoppix on another machine, followed by a few point and clicks allowed me to have the laptop pxe boot. Well, I was impressed, particularly since I'd managed to retrieve most of my data from a failed drive on it earlier with it using a dd and some of the rescue tools. PJ
