To reply to the suggestions from SaidinUnleashed:

For 0000:01:03.0 Network controller: Broadcom Corporation BCM94306 802.11g (rev 03)

modprobe b44 gives
/lib/...b44.o: init_module:no such device

But this is probably not a DSL 2.0RC1 issue

I notice that the initial boot from a USB 2.0 device goes very quickly but then copying the kernal to ramdisk seems to take the same time as a USB 1.1 device. Is there any way to check if DSL 2.0 is using USB 2.0 for this?

I tried using Netcardconfig from the DSL Control Panel and noticed the first screen appears to be in German:
eth0 Netzwerkkarte_0
wlan0 Netzwerkkarte_wlan0

Not a big deal I guess...

I also tried the PCMCIA tool from the DSL Control Panel but it only shows blank screens, even when there is a card in one of the slots - maybe this is because the PCMCIA controller is not recognised?

Roberts, Thank you for the lt winmodem help. I got the tainted kernel warning, but the modem worked fine. Just curious, I noticed that starting in and early version of DSL (I think 1.2 or so, don't remember) whenever I start a ppp conection, a second wmnet opens above the first one already in the slit. Any ideas?

Firefox does not work at all. Nothing happened when I clicked on the icon or selected from menu.
Any suggestion?

hs7sv-
I had the same thing due to home/dsl/.mozilla in my backup,
in a stroke of genius, I blew my previous backup away, and
had to start again.

JB4x4-
This was a known trick in earlier versions, was corrected by 1.5.

adraker, thanks ... I try to keep my backup. BTW, I got an idea from your post. I checked in /etc/skel/.mozilla and found that it's empty. Then, I deleted all files and /firefox in /home/dsl/.mozilla and shutdown restart. After re-boot, I try to run Firefox again. Now, it works. When I re-checked in /home/dsl/.mozilla, I found /firefox and appreg.
Maybe that directory was re-generated by Firefox or DSL.
