if you download the headers 2.4.27-2-386 but you don't have this kernel 
installed, then the module is not gonna work.
probably you have to download the kernel-source-2.4.27-2-386 and install it.
the easy way is to download, then goto /usr/src untar the bz2 file with:
tar -xjf kernel-source-2.4.27-2-386.tar.bz2 (or something like that).
then goto /usr/src/kernel-source-2.4.27-2-386 and execute:
make menuconfig.
then i live it all to you.
