I've compiled the kernel myself, using kernel-source-2.4.20, and
compiled the additional modules I needed (nvidia etc.) using
kernel-headers-2.4.20.
kernel-headers-2.4.20, however, "stopped" at version 2.4.20-5,
followed by kernel-headers-2.4.20-1, which is now at 2.4.20-7, and
then -3, which is at 2.4.20-8.

As I'd like to continue compiling my own kernels, I need something
like kernel-source-2.4.20-3...

Hope my apt cache hasn't been cleaned automatically already...

Is there any way to obtain the latest debian kernel sources that are
compatible with the -3 headers?

Thank you!
