Not sure exactly where you are going with all of this but you should at
least start with the default which is no xorg.conf at all - so maybe as
root, you should just 'mv /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf-saved'
and then reboot and see what happens because I would guess that the
knoppix org.conf you are trying to use is from a much earlier version of
xorg.
