I think 2.6.24 is the kernel in current Debian testing, so that version willll be in the next
release ("lenny") unless they move to 2.6.25 soon.

That's great if you are a Ubunutu customer, but that is not going to help you out if you are a kernel.org 2.6.24 user as the Ubuntu developers do not contribute their fixes/changes upstream, and their 2.6.24 kernel is very heavily modified from what the kernel.org version looks like.
kernel.org kernels on Debian Posted May 12, 2008 17:12 UTC (Mon) by dmarti (subscriber, #11625) [Link] It's pretty easy to keep up to date with 2.6.x.y on Debian. sudo apt-get install ketchup make-kpkg Keep an unpacked copy of a recent version in your home directory, then: cd linux-* ketchup -r make oldconfig make-kpkg --rootcmd fakeroot clean make-kpkg --rootcmd fakeroot kernel_image cd .. and sudo dpkg -i to install the new kernel package. Haven't tried this on Ubuntu.
