We are somewhat way from the list's theme: kde for debian.
The kernel you are running is not influenced by the version of debian. If you
run the debian kernels, install package kernel-image-<<kernelversion>>:
$ apt-cache search kernel-image-2.4.9
kernel-image-2.4.9-386 - Linux kernel image for version 2.4.9 on 386.
kernel-image-2.4.9-586 - Linux kernel image for version 2.4.9 on
586/K5/5x86/6x86/6x86MX.
kernel-image-2.4.9-586tsc - Linux kernel image for version 2.4.9 on
Pentium-Classic.
kernel-image-2.4.9-686 - Linux kernel image for version 2.4.9 on
PPro/Celeron/PII/PIII.
kernel-image-2.4.9-686-smp - Linux kernel image 2.4.9 on
PPro/Celeron/PII/PIII SMP.
kernel-image-2.4.9-k6 - Linux kernel image for version 2.4.9 on AMD
K6/K6-II/K6-III/K7
And "uname -r" simply gives you the kernel version.
Some driver names changed, though. If everything runs fine with your kernel
version, why changing. One reason will arise if XFree4.1 ever arrives at
Woody and you are using DRI.
