"modules" isn't a separate thing anymore.  it's included in
linux-2.2.9.tar.gz.  The only thing "extra" about the kernel-per-se you should
be worried about is pcmcia, which should be available wherever you got the
kernel from in the first place; failing that, try 
ftp.cc.gatech.edu.  

While we're on the subject of upgrading, http://www.kernelnotes.org has some
good
notes on what all needs upgrading before trying init 6 on a spiffy new 2.2.9
kernel....
best to read that *before* even thinking of "make config"....
