Sorry, the instructions at the top of this bug were outdated and
referenced an older version of the patched kernel. I fixed that now.
Here's the command to install the newest kernel in my PPA:

sudo apt-get install linux-image-2.6.35-v9patch1-generic

If you're still on 9.04 these instructions won't work because it will be
looking in the 9.04 version of the graphics-fixes repository, which is
empty. You can override that by going to System -> Administration ->
Software Sources and finding my PPA, then editing it and changing the
distribution to 'lucid'. Then after updating the repositories again, the
kernel will be available, and you can run the command to install it.

Then if you upgrade to 10.04, make sure when it asks to remove
obsolete/unsupported packages that it is not trying to remove that
kernel. If the kernel is listed, have it skip removing the packages. You
will now have 10.04 + a patched kernel, which hopefully will work right.
