This is not the naming convention for a Debian kernel. The fourth number for a stock Debian kernel is separated from the third by a hyphen, not a period. For example, uname -r on my system yields 2.6.26-2-686 (This is an i386 architecture machine.) Notice the "-2", not a ".2". The system may be a Debian system, but its kernel does not appear to be Debian kernel. The kernel is either from another distribution or is a custom built kernel. And who knows what kernel source code package was used to build the custom kernel. None of the Debian linux-header-* packages will be an exact match. Find out from your kernel builder *exactly* where to get the header files. -- .''`.
