I'm using the knoppix 3.7 livecd. I put it in, and it went wondrefully - detected everything, and looked like it was going to work quite well. Everything does, except that it won't connect to the internet. I used ifconfig, and eth0 doesn't show up, but eth1 does and has an ip address. I'm guessing that eth0 is my wireless adapter, which I have disabled, and eth1 is my wired adapter, which I would like to use. What do I need to do?
Okay, I did that, and now eth0 shows up in ifconfig with the ip address, but I'm quite sure that eth0 is still the wrong adapter, and that adapter isn't connected to anything. I still can't connect to the internet, as well.

And for route -n(the table won't fit, so I'll just list the order of the columns):

I hope I didn't make any typos...but that looks to be it.
