I had also some of those problems, eg. Timezone,printers,ISDN (but DSL was configured and works).-
Upto now I could not install any printer (I have LaserJet6P, HP Deskjet990c and HP OfficeJet V40). They all are recognized, I can configure them but then an error like 'add-printer fails' comes. drakconf can not be started. There comes an error that something like 'gtk2-perl is missing'. I did not figure out what exactly is missing/wrong.
