Hi and Welcome !

Are you using Debian or Ubuntu? Ubuntu 5.1 is very old and not supported by Ubuntu Team. I would suggest you to install latest version, 8.04 Hardy Heron.

AFAIK, Debian hasn't released 5.1 version yet. Could you post the output of this
Code:
cat /etc/debian-version
Its not recommended to install Knoppix. You should use it as LiveCD only. Linux Mint ( make sure to download/install latest version ) is good choice.
