Ah, thanks. The said Sid machine is in such a disarray now that we are thinking of doing a clean install. I guess apt-listbugs might have been helpful in preventing the upgrade of some packages which might have helped in creating the mess the machine is in now.
Moreover, I am also trying with a 2.6.12.2 kernel (vanilla) but am having problems with nvidia. But this another story for another thread.
