as I see in my package list (dpkg -l) linux-2.6.22 image is the highest
version supported from Debian-testing/lenny packages.
but you are encouraged to download the source tar of last stable kernel
version (actually 2.6.24.2) from http://www.kernel.org
so you configure it by yourself; that's rather easy; and you can configure all
the drivers you think to need....
