How do I install kernel 2.6.35 in 10.04?

I have encountered a bug relating to stock kernel 2.6.32 in lucid, so I want to upgrade to 2.6.35. What is the simplest way of doing that?


The ubuntu kernel team provides mainline kernels in a ppa.

You can see a complete list of versions available. The latest for Lucid appears to be 2.6.35-rc1-lucid. That link goes to a directory where you can download deb files. Install them to install the kernel.


The kernel team has just announced a 2.6.35 backport for 10.04. Please note:

While the primary incentive for the backport effort has been server enablement, the desktop flavours will work but your mileage may vary. I've successfully used -generic- on both nVidia and Intel graphics GPUs in 2D mode. That being said, any bug reports against the desktop flavours will be marked 'Wont Fix'. There is simply too much skew between Maverick DRM and Lucid X server drivers.

According to the mail the packages mentioned in this answer have been deleted.
