$ dpkg -l | grep ^ii |grep 2.6.8
ii kernel-headers-2.6.8-3 2.6.8-16sarge6 Header files related to Linux kernel version
ii kernel-headers-2.6.8-3-k7 2.6.8-16sarge6 Linux kernel headers 2.6.8 on AMD K7
ii kernel-kbuild-2.6-3 2.6.8-2 Linux kernel 2.6 kbuild tools
ii libpqxx-2.6.8 2.6.8-1+b1 C++ library to connect to PostgreSQL

# apt-get remove kernel-headers-2.6.8-3 kernel-headers-2.6.8-3-k7
kernel-kbuild-2.6-3
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree... Done
The following packages will be REMOVED:
kernel-headers-2.6-k7 kernel-headers-2.6.8-3 kernel-headers-2.6.8-3-k7
kernel-kbuild-2.6-3
0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 4 to remove and 0 not upgraded.
Need to get 0B of archives.
After unpacking 42.6MB disk space will be freed.

Is that really a good idea? Don't I neeed kernel-headers-2.6-k7 since I
use 2.6-18...-k7 for my AMD CPU? I tried removing one package at a time
but all resulted wanting to remove kernel-headers-2.6-k7 package. I
would love to get 42.6 MB of precious disk space back!

$ du /lib/modules/2.6.8-3-k7
1 /lib/modules/2.6.8-3-k7

It wouldn't help much for that specific location.
