Filename: pool/universe/k/kernel-source-2.6.10/kernel-source-2.6.10_2.6.10-6_all.deb

Mine shows up in the universe repositories.
Add the word "universe" to your sources and update.

EDIT: Or don't o.O *just read the sticky on posting in this forum*
Perhaps move your question elsewhere? Or someone explain what the sticky means, exactly?

have to admit it threw me! Is kernel source supported or not and if not why not?
Also its hard to know where to post, I would have expected it was somewhere but apparently not on this forum... I have to admit I find the whole divisions a bit confusing but hey ho----

Generally the divisions are not too tricky... Then again I rarely start my own thread. I mostly just hawk-eye the "New Posts" thing and help out where I can.

I think as long as no one deletes this, the worst that'll happen is they'll move it someplace and advise on where to put such topics for future reference.
I'm in no way an official voice but I think it's fine being here for the time being... Looking over the other possible choices on the main page, I don't personally see where else I would have put it if it were me... maybe in "community chat" and added a note "I have no idea where the put this, the sticky scared me away from the repository forum" or something.
