Hardy Heron now has the 2.6.24 kernel in sources. The next Alpha will ship with 2.6.24 I believe.
1) edit the file /etc/apt/sources.list and add the following line:
deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu hardy main restricted
2) sudo apt-get update
3) sudo apt-get install linux-image-2.6.24-1-generic
4) reboot and select the new kernel from the grub menu
I am using Gutsy so I # comment out the Hardy line in sources.list after like this:
#deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu hardy main restricted
I need the 2.6.24 kernel for my laptop.
