Hi Israel,
I had 'fun' yesterday when I (in VB) used the YAD to install Firefox and then tried Iceweasel as they are both in the list of browsers to try.
Bad thing to do...I've spent almost 24 hrs on and off sorting out the mess.  Bottom line is that the Debian package build for Iceweasel now names its binary /usr/bin/firefox and it finds a packaging clash with an already installed Firefox (in this case) which also names its binary /usr/bin/firefox.
Suggestion: maybe remove Iceweasel from the YAD list??
Cheers,JackT.
PS: I'll zsync the newest one later today.  :)

    HI Jack,

      Yes it takes a while.

      you can check to make sure you have the 686 kernel.

      the 586 is non PAE.

        Hi Israel,
        

        
        Installed in VB; just one observation:
        

        
        I answered 'yes' to 'do you want to install the PAE kernel
          now' and both times I did that, it took more than 10 minutes
          to finish.
        

        
        1) Is that expected?
        2) Why is there that question at all?
        

        
        Cheers,
        JackT.
        

        
        PS: I did see some discussion between you and Nio on Debian
          kernel differences and PAE aspects but not sure I can find it
          now.
