Install latest kernel to Ubuntu and have grub acknowledge the new installed kernel
- by Phuong Nguyen
I have an installed Ubuntu Distro (Karmic 9.10) already.
However, due to some problems with xorg ati driver, I cannot standby my computer.
Some guy have suggested me to try the latest version of xorg driver which in turn requires a newer version of Linux kernel than the newest release available from Ubuntu Central Repository (2.6.33).
I have searched though several articles on how to install a custom Linux kernel. However, these articles are so 2004/2005 and they were talking about lilo (???). Since then, I'm afraid that I cannot make the Grub Boot recognize the new Linux kernel properly (I'm just a newbie to Linux). I would love to know how to install the kernel into Ubuntu and have grub acknowledge the new installed kernel.
