No, doesn't seem to be possible for me.  ;)

There is only one v3.7 kernel: v3.7-rc1-quantal.
I tried to install that linux-image and linux-image-extra, but:

E: Error, pkgProblemResolver::Resolve generated breaks, this may be

What exactly do you want me to do ?  Did you want me to use
v3.3.7-precise ?

Something I forgot to mention here
----------------------------------
I used 10.04 on this ThinkPad for 2 years without any problems running
[the same] Fingerprint software and there were no boot hangs !

I just booted 10.04 with kernel 2.6.32.41 to make a backup of 12.04
before the v3.7-kernel experiment and *didn't* find the
'[drm:intel_dsm_pci_probe] *ERROR* failed to get supported _DSM
functions' line in syslog there either.

The DRM-related syslog lines are:
