As this is the "official" release thread, can you please (re)post which backup files we should be concerned with 2.0 overwriting when we migrate. Making sure my tweaks stay tweaked is always the most challenging part of the upgrade for me.

Much thanks.

I have mouse problems: in DSL 1.5 the mouse worked ok, now it works much too slow.
It's an Mitusmi PS/2 Optical Mouse, Model: ECM-S6702 , 400 DPI, 12,500 bps.

Some of the new files that may be overwritten by your existing backups. To be sure to have the new files do the following:

cp /etc/skel/.fluxbox/menu /home/dsl/.fluxbox/.
cp /etc/skel/.fluxbox/init /home/dsl/.fluxbox/.
cp -r /etc/skel/.xtdesktop /home/dsl/.
cp /etc/skel/.xfiletool.lst /home/dsl/.

Note this is required even if you were already running a 2.0RC
Note: this is required for going from 1.5 to 2.0
From earlier versions you will have to find my posts describing such files.

Also, if Firefox does not start then delete your old .mozilla directory.
You might want to save your bookmarks first.
