This does not at all answer my question. (And I already have
linux-image-amd64

The first paragraph of the original email:
I am running Debian testing, which currently has kernel 3.2.23-1, same as
unstable. experimental has 3.5.something. I am looking to run kernel
version
3.3 or higher.
Here is what I did,
1] Download the latest stable from kernel.org
2] copy old .config from currently working one
Here is one link, recommended by someone from list to me before.

and then run configure and make-kpkg
Frankly speaking, in the past several kernel I tried, even though I do
