Hi guys,
I am an IT administrator at a small elementary school. We are looking at upgrading from Ubuntu 8.04 to 10.04. We are using nComputing x550 and x350 thin clients with Lenovo servers. In order for the nComputing to work with 10.04.2 LTS I need help locating a couple versions with specific kernels.

The kernels that are specified to work with 10.04.2 LTS are 2.6.32-{21,22,23, or 29}-generic

Does anyone have a line on where I can locate one of those versions? I have already tried with 2.6.32-32-generic and the nComputing fails to work because of kernel incompatibility.

The other solution would be to downgrade to one of those kernels. That's a process I've never attempted before. How could I go about doing that if required?

Thanks,
Colin

Take your architecture 32 or 64 bit
all.deb
headers 32 or 64 bit
image 32 or 64 bit
download and from directory where downloaded
ls
sudo dpkg -i (copy and paste all.deb)
sudo dpkg -i (copy and paste headers)
sudo dpkg -i (copy and paste image)

here you can choose a kernel:

http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/

select the kernel folder you want/need: install 32 bits (i386) or 64 bits (amd64) depending on your needs. When the kernel is chosen, you first install the headers packages (2) then the image package.
