Your sources list is basicly the same as mine i think (see attached). Did
you apt-get update 1st? If not try that then the apt-cache search.

sudo apt-get update && apt-cache search linux-restricted-modules

Gives me:

linux-restricted-modules-2.6.15-23-386 - Non-free Linux 2.6.15 modules on
386
linux-restricted-modules-2.6.15-23-686 - Non-free Linux 2.6.15 modules on
