2.6.30 kernel in Ubuntu 9.04

kernelLike a lot of people, I’ve also been having performance problems with my intel based graphics since the release of Jaunty. I found a little article that describes how you can install a newer kernel in your Ubuntu 9.04.

I’ve been using it for a day now and I have the advantages of the new kernel: faster graphics and faster sleep & wakeup. The only thing I had to do to get my system fully up and running was to recompile the kernel module for VirtualBox, something you’ll have to do anyway when you install a new kernel.
