   You are of course at liberty to do whatever you wish. I do not assume
that you have Knoppix as well as the standard Debian.
   I believe that Knoppix is based on Debian, not neccessarily identical,
and that it does not use software exclusively from Debian Stable. It is
possible that some differences may become more obvious later, perhaps when
you wish to use the standard Debian upgrade proceedures. It is equally
possible that well-tried-and-tested software from Debian Testing may have
been used which will not require upgrading as soon.
