K0K, there is no link for the bittorrent client, you have to run it from a console. Just open a Konsole and type btdownloadcurses for more help. I also have a script to execute bittorrent step by step (choose file, speed, folder, ...) if you want it I can translate it to english and post it here.
I don't like the latest releases of Knoppix, it has lost some nice applications like Ksim and KDE Guard, and now it's missing AbiWord. I like AbiWord because it can recognize password protected documents created with MS Word 2000, while KWord and Openoffice Writer can't open them.

and there are graphical frontents for bittorrent, too.
if abiword can open these password protected wordfiles, and kword can't, why not do a feature request in kword, pointing to abiword's capabilities, so they can copy it(its Open Sourced, isnt it?)

Could someone publish somewhere result of dpkg -l on current knoppixes?
I'm wondering whether should I spend another 2 days on downloading current version to check which programs changed?

Updating Knoppix
Is it correct that I can update Knoppix 2003-11-14 to 2003-11-19 with this command:
apt-get dist-upgrade
-
You'll upgrade your system that's for sure, but not to a new Knoppix release... Regarding HD installs, I don't think you need to download each release of Knoppix each time there's a new release out. If your current install is fine then you can keep using that and just run 'apt-get update' and 'apt-get upgrade' to keep your system up to date.
As mentioned somewhere else in the forums, a dist-upgrade might end up breaking things. An apt-get upgrade is usually your best bet.
Knoppix is basically Debian and dist upgrade means upgrading from a version of Debian to a higher or more recent one... like the 'stable' branch of Debian to either 'testing' or 'unstable'. This is how I understand it to be. By the way, stable, testing, and unstable are rather descriptive of their state in Debian's development process. Knoppix, IIRC, is a mix (of mostly testing and unstabe?).
Knoppix, I believe, is Debian that is re-packaged into a live CD so the difference between releases would be the packages included and how recent they are (updates and bug fixes). That should be about it. Basically, you should be able to easily compensate for any difference between releases by keeping your system up to date and downloading (or removing) packages for/from your system.

Mozilla Firebird and Thunderbird
Next Knoppix release, it is possible to bundle these two? They have much more functionality than Mozilla 1.5 and load in half the time. Just a suggestion. Thanks for knoppix!!!

Samba
I love Knoppix! I have been useing it since I was introduced to it by my unix instructor about a year ago. Every time a new release comes out, I downloaded it and pass my older version on to someone else; hoping they will enjoy it as much as I do. Anyways, I am stuck on the version that was released on 9-24-2003. All the new versions give me an error message "cant resolve address" when I try to mount network drives. I run knoppix directly off the cd as to avoid any viruses or my kids damaging any files. I map to my network to save my files. My first version of Knoppix would bring up the entire network in the LinNeighborhood as soon as I opened it; at work, home, or school. The later versions I've had to individually query each machine.
I really would like the newer releases to work for me, and even better if they could work like my first.
I have now got about 20 people, must of them don't know how to do any thing but turn the power on and surf the internet, using these disks when they get on the internet just to keep me from having to work on their machines all the time. Knoppix has been a lifesaver for me! Thank you!

@xstreamfisherman:
I am pretty sure you can do both - avoid virii and protect your files from your kids - on an HD installation. I would really recommend an HD install if you use Knoppix regularly. It will give you a lot more flexibility as you can keep your system up to date as well as have the ability to and add and remove packages.
Regaring viruses and such... I don't think this is a problem on a Linux box.
