Yup, install the headers and image of the 2.6.19 kernel.  This is the 
latest kernel Free made for the "Old school" version (SMP enabled)

The 2.6.19 kernel has been in use on my PC for the past few months, and 
it is a MACHINE....  Should be fine!

And no... Synaptic respects your choice of a kernel.  If you want an 
older kernel, thats what it will give you ;-)
