    addon kernel module packages are not automatically updated - the version
    of the kernel they are built for is part of the name of the package - so
    that it is easier to have multiple versions installed without updates
    replacing the earlier ones.

    You have to explicitly request the new module for your new kernel.
    Usually (at least from livna) they appear very quickly.
