I am slightly confused by the instructions.

>test the latest upstream kernel available from the very top line at the top of 
>the page 
>lease do not test the daily folder

The page linked https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds redirects
to
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/MainlineBuilds?action=show&redirect=KernelMainlineBuilds
and currently reads: "We currently build five sets of upstream kernels.
All formal tags from Linus' tree and from the stable trees, plus:

1) the daily tip of Linus' linux kernel source tree,
2) the tip of the drm-next head of Dave Airlie's linux repository daily,
3) the tip of the drm-intel-next head of Keith Packard's linux repository daily 
until 2012, after which it has been taken over by Daniel Vetter at 
http://cgit.freedesktop.org/drm-intel/, and in particular, the drm-intel-next 
branch,
4) the tip of the master branch of the debloat-testing tree daily,
5) tags from the combined v2.6.32.x.y tree (by StefanBader) which is v2.6.32.x 
with DRM from 2.6.33.y."

So should I be using the Daily Tip of Linus's Linux kernel source tree
or not?


Do you actually want me to go to 
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/MainlineBuilds?action=show&redirect=KernelMainlineBuilds#Installing_upstream_kernels
 which includes a link to 
http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v3.14.4-utopic/ where it seems I 
can cut out some of the URL to get 
http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/ which does include a "daily 
folder" for me to avoid.  

I am on Ubuntu 14.04.2 LTS (Trusty Tahr, and the latest build for that
seems to be http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-
ppa/mainline/v3.15-rc2-trusty/ so should I download the relevant files
from there and start on the install instructions?
