Have a look at the changelog [1], but don't expect too much, the stable kernel doesn't usually get additional hardware support. [1] http://packages.debian.org/changelogs/pool/main/l/linux-2.6/linux-2.6_2.6.26-25/changelog If this is an existing system you can try the kernel from backports (currently 2.6.32 vs. 2.6.26 in stable). If the unsupported piece of hardware is essential for installing you can use the kmuto installer, which is a modified installer with a newer kernel (also from backports?).
