You could use aptosid, try the live cd, basically its debian testing 
less the kernel.
Its kernel is slightly more modern.
Linux hal99 2.6.36-0.slh.3-aptosid-686 #1 SMP PREEMPT Tue Nov 2 14:54:19 
UTC 2010 i686 GNU/Linux

However it does not support the 12 arches that Debian does.
(Which is more than the LUAS, oh my did I really go for that pun?)
P.
