If you were an openSUSE user, I would point you to a wiki page that gives one a prescription on how to get the "kernel-of-the-day" from the openSUSE Build Service.

When I provide such suggestions to the Fedora bugzilla, one of their kernel developers generates a test kernel and reports its link on the list.

As I am not an Ubuntu user, I can only give you the general instructions on how to download the kernel source, and how to build a kernel from that. I could not tell you how to install the necessary tools, or any of the other details, thus the general instructions would probably be useless.

Is there a kernel dev for Ubuntu that monitors these lists? If so, perhaps she/he can help. Otherwise, you will need to rely on a user that knows what needs to be done. Of course, a Google search on "Ubuntu new kernel build" might have some useful info.
