First you can try an lsmod to list the kernel modules currently loaded.
If Knoppix uses a monolithic kernel structure then this may not work.
If you have an integrated nic and Knoppix has the command, run lspci to
list the devices connected to the pci bus of your system. Also, try
surfing the /proc/bus directory if you have it and you may find the
device listed in a file in there.

Subject: [tclug-list] locating driver info


I have a used Dell laptop that must have been modified after it was
shipped because I cannot find the proper windows driver for it. I booted
it with Knoppix, which finds and brings up the nic. Where can I look in
Knoppix to see what driver it used, so I can get a clue what windows
driver to look for?
