Reading the instructions again: 
> the latest upstream kernel available from the very top line at the top of the 
> page 

So does that mean I should be looking to get http://kernel.ubuntu.com
/~kernel-ppa/mainline/drm-intel-next/current/ which seems to be a 4.1
Kernel instead of the 3.16 that is currently on my machine.

Hey, now I get a different page off of your original link.
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/MainlineBuilds?action=show&redirect=KernelMainlineBuilds
now shows a link to http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-
ppa/mainline/?C=N;O=D and at the top of that page is
http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v4.1-rc5-unstable/

I shall follow the instructions for downloading and installing then get
back to you with the results.  Seems to take a week or two for the
problem to surface so it might take a while for me to declare a Kernel
good.  I suppose it would be quite easy to make it bad though if it
fails.
