my hunch is that you are mixing up Kernel versions with Debian releases.
Try
    cat /etc/debian_version
to see what you are running. For me this is
    $ cat debian_version
    wheezy/sid

The support of Etch has ended last year.

There are many companies offering various kinds of support
for Debian. Certainly we would like to see IBM to join in.
You may possibly want to ask any of those for help or ask on
the respective appropriate mailing list for insights.

With kind regards,
