Yep, just realized that. I have good documentation on how to get back to
where I was. Any way to implement it on the older kernel part of 0.4.1?

This is a deb package you need to download it and install with "dpkg 
-i".  Since this is a newer kernel, use it at your own risk - something 
may break.

The new daily snapshot full distro image is available at:
    http://www.voyage.hk/download/voyage/voyage-current.tar.bz2
or mirror sites.
