Where did you get "Debian Way" sources for 2.6.29?

The last kernel I made for rt patches that was workable was 2.6.23 which I got
prepatched from musix. Kernels I built for 2.6.25 and 2.6.26 had problems with
IDE DMA and were too dangerous to use (this was for a via chipset MB). I am
running an unpatched (none available) 2.6.28 without problems but have done no
audio on it. Things play OK.
