5.1.1 is good enough.
The DVD does contain a lot more software like Java etc.
However, there is one catch that I recently found out.
If you are using a live knoppix DVD and you decide to install Knoppix on
your hard drive, then it copies the entire uncompressed image which is
around 8-9 GB. This takes a very long time and a lot of space too(Granted
it does install lots of packages)

HTH,
