I hadn't added a new entry with the new kernel in menu.lst.  Now I did and
it's all right.

But, two more questions:

the mozilla-browser package is not there in Debian Sid.  How can I know what
its equivalent is?

I thought there were only Debian Stable, Testing and Unstable; but now I see
also `experimental'.  What's that?

Thanks
