> OK. I can pull down 3.10-rc1 from the Ubuntu Kernel archives (http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/)- pre-compiled since I don't care to roll my own kernel - especially if the patch takes a bit of work as you say.
If you're going to run Vmware, you WILL need the patch to make vmnet module compile on 3.10-rc1. I doubt the precompiled kernel comes with precompiled-vmware modules.
