I don't know if anyone has packaged 2.6.34. If you want to build it yourself:

1. Install kernel-package
2. Download 2.6.34 full source from kernel.org
3. tar jxf linux-2.6.34.tar.bz2
4. cd linux-2.6.34
5. cp /boot/config-<your current kernel> .config <-- leading dot is important
6. make oldconfig < /dev/nul
7. make menuconfig, disable Kernel Hacking->Kernel debugging (or your resulting images will be hundreds of megs)
7. CONCURRENCY_LEVEL=2 fakeroot make-kpkg --revision=1 --bzimage --initrd kernel_image kernel_headers
8. Install the kernel packages (may have to edit /var/lib/dpkg/info/linux-image-2.6.34.postinst and replace $kimage = "bzImage" with "vmlinuz", then apt-get -f install)
9. Ensure /boot/initrd-2.6.34 exists, if not, update-initramfs -u -k 2.6.34
10. Ensure update-grub is run

Then reboot and hope new kernel works.
