Installation instructions
Open the zip-file with WinZip, WinRAR or 7-Zip. Or run this command:
unzip ubuntu-kernel-64bit-3.18.0-3-exton.zip
Go into the folder ubuntu-kernel-64bit-3.18.0-3-exton and run this command:
sudo dpkg -i linux-headers-3.18.0-3_3.18.0-3.3_all.deb
linux-headers-3.18.0-3-exton_3.18.0-3.3_amd64.deb
linux-image-3.18.0-3-exton_3.18.0-3.3_amd64.deb
Then: Run command sudo update-grub (if you use Grub2).

Nvidia
It is possible to install Nvidia’s proprietary drivers if you use “my” kernel 3.18.0-3-exton. Could be useful if you like to play games. Please read this instruction. The Nvidia drivers in for example Ubuntu’s repositories – “Current” etc. – can’t be used. It is supposed to be “impossible” to install Nvidia’s latest drivers when running kernel 3.15 – 3.18 without “patches” etc.

A small clarification

“My” kernel 3.18.0-3-exton is compiled exactly the same way as all official Ubuntu kernels. That is, The Ubuntu Way. If not, the kernel would not function in a Ubuntu/Debian system.
