ted packages. After you have installed the keys you have to run 'apt-get update' or 'aptitude update' again, but I think you already mentioned that you did that. No, actually that appears to be the step that I missed. I did the key installs with aptitude then tried the firefox install.

You are probably using 2.2, which I have no experience with. Try upgrading to 2.4 if possible, with the following command: apt-get install kernel-image-2.4.18-1-386 (You will need to reboot.) That will bring you up to 2.4, and then you may want to upgrade to sarge, the latest stable, and get 2.6.
