Hi all,

I found that Knoppix 3.3 (and probably also 3.4) still uses the *very*
outdated smartsuite package (which is not under active development).
Please use smartmontools (on sourceforge) instead. I've been using the
RedHat version of them for more than one year now. The package is well
organized, the Debian developer is very responsive, and there's no
reason to stay with outdated smartsuite instead. Please ask me directly
if there are any questions.

Thanks,
 Steffen
