Yes! It is fairly easy to install a new kernel w/o the Jaunty goodness.
Just download it from the kernel-ppa and use 'sudo dpkg -i' to install it.
e.g. Download a linux-image*.deb file from http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v2.6.28.9/ (32 or 64-bit) and install it
Or try a newer version of the kernel from http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v2.6.29.1/
