Hi, Jen.  Since you're new, here's a little something to get you
started on the right foot, in case you haven't seen this.

   http://www.debian.org/MailingLists/#CodeofConduct

In addition to the offical rules, there are a couple of unofficial
rules:

   1. Don't "top post": use the usenet style of quoting
      (see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Top_posting)

   2. Trim your posts (also covered in the above article)

Now, about your original question, the 2.6.32-trunk kernels have
recently been obsoleted.  You should use the 2.6.32-3 kernels (and
their headers) instead.
