Hi.  Thanks for the reply.  I am in a different time zone, so I may not respond to your answer right away.  Not sure what your meaning is..
Should I run [lspci -knn | grep "Audio"] in terminal mode (command line) to determine what my audio is?

I'm in.  Internet works with CD version.  It has wicd, as well as Deluge (not sure what that is, but don't care yet).
Now I'm doing apt-get update, then will do apt-get dist-upgrade.  Any other recommendations after that?
Thanks again.

Thank you both, now all three. Okay...

fsmithred -- I tried to figure out if the firmware was installed, by going into my File Manager to see if I could find any drivers, and I found this:  lib/modules/3.16.0-4-amd64/kernel/drivers/firmware, and then I just found an efi directory, as well as some .ko files -- nothing that looked like "firmware-brcm80211."

In Synaptic Package Manager I see two choices, python-wicd, and wicd-daemon.  Choose one of these? (but remember, I do not have any internet connection yet, if internet is needed)

I installed this current distro via a usb flashdrive with the iso image.  You mentioned inserting the DVD to find the firmware package in the /firmware directory.  So instead of the DVD, I plugged the usb flashdrive with back in, and it just wants me to go through the installation process again, I don't see an option to go to any directory.  So, I then tried to plug the flashdrive in After I turned on the computer in normal mode, and then I clicked on the icon for the iso, and went in to firmware, and see this:  "firmware-brcm80211_0.43_all.deb" - I am guessing that is what we are after.  My choices are (when I right click on it):  Open with Xarchiver, or other applications, or send to (several choices), or copy, or extract to.

FOSSuser -- When the usb wifi stick is plugged in before I start the computer, I still do not see any wicd to open once it is fully booted up.  It is usually under the Internet category, but here I only get Firefox ESR and Iceweasel>Firefox ESR.

fungus -- I see your post now, just as I am about to post this.  The problem is that there is no wicd option given.  I think I know where it usually is, with Internet options in the Application Menu.

Thank you for the reply. 
I did a manual install, for a dual boot.  I did not decline any options to install firmware.
I used devuan_jessie_1.0.0_amd64_DVD.iso.
I do not see any Wicd network manager.  Is this because I added the xfce option during install?  If so, how do I get out of xfce?
My internal network controller (in the laptop) possibly does not work.
Network controller:  Broadcom Corporation BCM 4313 802.11bgn Wireless Network Adapter (rev 01)
I also have an external device, which is plugged in and does work (USB Wireless adapter):  Edimax EW-7722UTn V2.
Thanks again.
