I've figured that there would be a techie who'd know how to fix hardware incompatibilities with linuxs on this forum, so i decided to post this one.

the thing is that knoppix doesn't recognise either my printer, sound card nor hard drive. since i'm using it only as a rescue system, only the HD is important... a friend of mine thought that it might be cause linux can't recognise SATA HD's...

any suggestions?
