Hm currently there's -13 with -13lenny2 scheduled for the next stable
release available for Lenny.
sven@arthur:~$ rmadison linux-image-2.6.26-1-686
linux-image-2.6.26-1-686 | 2.6.26-13 | stable | i386
linux-image-2.6.26-1-686 | 2.6.26-13 | testing | i386
linux-image-2.6.26-1-686 | 2.6.26-13lenny2 | proposed-updates | i386
If you've still something older than that you should check your system and
maybe the mirror why this is the case.
Personally I decided to run my Geode LX system with the 486 kernel image.
Donno how much of a performance penalty there is but I guess for usual
system usage it doesn't matter.
