Backtrack works better

I've been having trouble with Konqueror (web browser for Kubunu)
not connecting to web sites even though ping works and DNS resolution
works for other applications.

Backtrack (www.remote-exploit.org) works better. It has Firefox as it's browser.
It works. It tries automatically to pull an IP address from all configured
interfaces (including wireless), and that seems to work. Downsides (maybe)
it does not contain openoffice.org (but then that's not what the distro is for)
and it's RPM based, e.g. no easy debianesque "apt-get install foo".
