BTW, thanks for all the help. This forum is invaluable. If I can figure
out whatever is wrong, I will be very happy to document the whole mess in a
bug report for the group that is responsible for hardware detection.

That explains the absence of visible hardware modules in Knoppix.

I've already upgraded to testing and have upgraded the kernel to 2.6.12 due
to it's ability to detect and manage a wider variety of hardware devices.

That sounds reasonable, but will take some research on my part before I can
do it. For each suspected "unneeded" module, I'd have to explore the source
to make sure that it isn't required due to some minor feature that it
happens to perform. I will also need to delve into the mobo hardware and
figure out what features are present in this particular stepping of both
Northbridge and Southbridge chips. I suspect it would get me there, but it
sounds like more of a last resort.

This sounds interesting. In the Synaptic Package manager, I see that
discover1 (1.7.13) and discover1-data (1.2005.07.31) are installed. It
shows discover (2.0.7) and discover-data (2.2005.02.13-1) as being
available. This is curious. The version number of discover is higher than
that of discover1, but discover1-data appears to be more recent than
discover-data.
Assuming you recommend this, how do replace discover1 with discover without
breaking things? My guess would be to install discover and discover-data in
Synaptic and see if discover1 is removed. If not, would I then remove
discover1 and discover1-data? I know I can do the same thing with apt-get,
but this seems easier, unless there is some reason _not_ to use the Synaptic
tool.

Sounds reasonable, but I would need to know what modules to include. I'm
not afraid of building a kernel, but I think identifying the appropriate
hardware modules would be a challenge.

I've attached the full output of dmesg from the most recent boot. It looks
like it finds and correctly identifies the CD (the model number appears
right), so I'm really at a loss.

Also attached.
