Hi Rodrigo,

I usually do something like the following:

1) Take a look at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelTeam/GitKernelBuild - it should 
provide you with the overall general information/instructions to build and 
install the kernel.
2) You'll likely want to modify step 2 of the GitKernelBuild wiki. You'll 
probably want the Ubuntu kernel source not the upstream one. You can either get 
the Ubuntu kernel from: git://kernel.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ubuntu-hardy.git 
(obviously this is the hardy kernel - but git trees exist for gutsy, feisty, 
dapper). Or you can do an 'apt-get source [kernel-package]' to get the code.
3) After you've grabbed the source you'll want to grab the patches as well.
4) Perform step 3 of the wiki
5) Patch the kernel - typically kernel patches can be applied with the 
following: patch -p1 < patchfile
5a) Usually patches should apply cleanly but you may have to fix up any 
conflicts by hand
6) Proceed to step 4 of the wiki and continue to follow the instructions there

Hope that helps.  Unfortunately the kernel is currently frozen so we may
have to wait for the Intrepid release to have an out of the box fix.
But if you can verify the patch for Hardy we can target it for the
8.04.1 point release.  Thanks.
