Hi,

I'm running 2.6.29 rt-kernel from 64Studio repos in my Lenny/Sid mutant. 
Maybe not too recommended, but works fine here.

Add repository:
deb http://apt.64studio.com/backports hardy-backports main

(yes, hardy)
....and search for linux-image multimedia. Both 32-bit and 64-bit 
kernels are there (and also 2.6.26 versions).

Headers for 2.6.29 are not yet installable, since linux-kbuild-2.6.29 is 
missing.
