Don't worry you simply recieved an update to your
Linux kernel.  You probably did update of your
system.  If you want to get rid of the newer
kernel you can simply go to adept/synaptic and
type in the name of the kernel and then select it
for uninstall.  I would, however, suggest you try
out the newer one, the 2.6.12-10 as it should have
sevurity and other fixes that may help you. 

Your friend,
