There is no b44 module in the stock debian kernel. If this module exists
in the 2.4.22 tree and is just not being turned on (seems to be so),
could you please file a bug report on the kernel-image-2.4.22-1-386
package and ask for it to be turned on. I'll then add it to the install
media.

That's strange, because I don't see the b44 in the kernel package. What
kernel package do you have installed that includes that module?
