The 8.10 "intrepid" repositories are 2.6.27-7 and 2.6.27-9.
The 8.04 "hardy" repositories hold 2.6.24-{16,18,19,21,22}.

Don't forget that the 8-11 fglrx drivers aren't just for the newer 
kernel version, but also the newer version of xorg (7.4), so if you're 
going to install the older fglrx *.deb package you'll also have to 
downgrade your xorg-* packages too... and everything that depends on the 
newer xorg-* packages, which is probably too much.

Maybe building a new fglrx-2:8.543 (aka version 8-11) package with 
linux-headers-2.6.24 might give us something that works with xorg-7.4 
and linux-image-2.6.24  I'll give it a shot when I get home tonight (or 
someone please tell me why this won't work.)
