Ok.. this is probably much easier than it sounds.
what I am trying to figure out here is when I click on your Wiki link..
there are tabs above..
below in the page there is :
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

We currently build five sets of mainline kernels. All formal tags from
Linus' tree and from the stable trees, plus:

   1.

   the tip of the master branch from Linus'
tree<http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=summary>daily,
   2.

   the tip of the
drm-next<http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/airlied/drm-2.6.git;a=shortlog;h=refs/heads/drm-next>head
of Dave Airlie's
   
drm-2.6<http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/airlied/drm-2.6.git;a=summary>repository
daily,
   3.

   the tip of the
drm-intel-next<http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/ickle/drm-intel.git;a=shortlog;h=refs/heads/drm-intel-next>head
of Chris Wilson's
   
drm-intel<http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/ickle/drm-intel.git;a=summary>repository
daily,
   4. the tip of the master branch of the debloat-testing tree daily,
   5.

   tags from the combined
v2.6.32.x.y<http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/smb/linux-2.6.32.y-drm33.z.git;a=summary>tree
(by
   StefanBader <https://wiki.ubuntu.com/StefanBader>) which is v2.6.32.x
   with DRM from 2.6.33.y.

This makes these kernels closer to the Lucid kernels which are based on
2.6.32 kernels with DRM backported from the 2.6.33 series.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
>From your comment of Test the Latest not the Daily Directory.. I am assuming
the above is Daily Directory ?
IF so.. where is this Latest kernel found ? I see much below that a way to
down load and install various types of kernel and how to install them. Not
sure exactly how to do all that as I am such a new be on much of that.
I have very light Terminal understanding. as in Sudo apt- get install etc..
or same update or Upgrade.
That above ends it. Not much more training than that.. Wish there were an
easy game or class to take for more.
can some one be so kind as to be patient and help a guy Do what is best with
this? IE Show me a little more on HOW to do what you are asking? sorry.. I
am sure I will - hand to face- this once I realize how easy it is.
