You can certainly extract any package you want from Knoppix and SuSe.
Knoppix is Debian based system. You can use the command:
dpkg -L <packageName>
This will list out all files associated with the package. I believe
SuSe is RPM based distribution. This will get you the listing:
rpm -qlv <packageName>
It would be better and easier to obtain the original packages once you
know the detail of it such as version information.
dpkg -s <packageName> or rpm -q <packageName>
You just go to the corresponding sites to get it. Anyway, the binary
of the package might not be sufficient because of additional
dependencies especially something like xine and mplayer.
