Installing linux 2.6.35 in Lucid

0 comments
You can install Linux 2.6.35 (the default is 2.6.32) in Lucid from the Ubuntu repositories by installing the following packages:

linux-image-X-lts-backport-maverick
linux-headers-X-lts-backport-maverick

Where X is one {generic, generic-pae, server, virtual, ...} per your platform. The headers are required for recompiling of kernel modules. I also required a reinstallation of nvidia-current to trigger the rebuild.
