apt-get install kernel-headers-<kernelversion>-<flavour>
Use the Debian website packages search page to find out suitable
values for flavour (pick what best matches your machine). You want
2.2.20 for kernelversion, of course.
kernel-headers are the C header files for kernel source code; if you
have the kernel source installed, instead of the kernel-headers
package all you need is a symbolic link pointing to the kernel source
tree.
