This is quite certainly not from the above line. Probably you have
another line pointing to sarge or stable.

There was a rename of kernel-xxx to linux-xxx from sarge to etch.
Installing ' linux-source-2.6.17' should get you the current sources.

'linux-image-2.6.17-2-686' is what I have installed.

Yes, finally I found myself a little bit stupid discovering there's a "linux-source" package while was looking for "kernel-source".
Now evertything it's running fine.

Thanx to everyone for helping
