I apologize for editing this post, many users here are not as computer savvy as you pch. I also want to take the time to inform users that FF3 is in beta, and should be done by those that really know what they are doing. I return the mic to pch, I did attach screenshots of what he refers to.

Go to Synaptic Settings Repositories Updates
system>>administration>>synaptic package manager
