This is going to do *nothing* with modules.  They aren't in that package.  
They would be in a package like: linux-image-2.6.26-1-686.  the longer 
version number with a Debian revision is key.  The package you keep   
reinstalling just has a few files (no modules) and Depends on the latest 
version of the 2.6-686 image.

That's because you don't have the right kernel package installed.  Please 
run:
aptitude search '^linux-image-.*-686$'
and post the output to the list.
