Is it useful that I test this behaviour with other kernels? If yes, which kernels?

Following https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/FAQ#How%20can%20we%20determine%20the%20version%20of%20the%20running%20kernel?
cat /proc/version_signature
Ubuntu 2.6.32-24.43-generic 2.6.32.15+drm33.5
So I believe 2.6.32.15+drm33.5 is the mainline kernel I should install if that is what is needed.
Should I install that one or a newer one?

For the newest one, if I understand well the page
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/MainlineBuilds
I should go to
http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/daily/current/
and install the linux-image-*-i386.deb package.
Is that correct?

For the version that corresponds to the current kernel on my laptop
I understand I should rather go to
http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v2.6.32.15-lucid/
Is that correct?

Thanks,
Cyprien.
