Running KNOPPIX 11
Installing Software in KNOPPIX
Despite the fact that KNOPPIX includes a wide range of software applications, there may be some
software package you want to use with it that isn??™t included. For installing software while you are
running KNOPPIX from the DVD, you can use Synaptic.
To start Synaptic, click the squished penguin on the KNOPPIX panel and select Utilities???Manage
Software in KNOPPIX. The Synaptic window opens, displaying lists of installed packages. Here??™s
what you do to install a package:
1. Reload the package list. To see which packages are available for you to install, select the
Reload button. Synaptic searches online repositories configured for KNOPPIX for available
packages and loads them into the Synaptic window. New package categories and
packages appear.
2. Select a package. Choose a category on the left and any package you want from that category
on the right. A description of the package appears in the lower pane. Figure 11-1
shows an example of Synaptic with the bzflag package selected.
