That's an 2.6.33.7.2-rt30 kernel. For amd64 there are also newer kernels
available on debian.pengutronix.de (3.0 series) and Debian experimental
(3.2 series). If possible I'd recommend the newer versions.

Normal Debian kernel means 2.6.32 I guess? 2.6.32-36 added a backport of
the e1000e driver from 2.6.38 and this backport is not included in the
2.6.33.7.2-rt30 package because it branched from the Debian kernel
before 2.6.32-36.

They should be available on debian.pengutronix.de, too. Just install the
matching headers package, in your case probably
linux-headers-2.6.33.7.2-rt30-1-686.

Best regards
