I'm wondering if Kernel 3.5 or 3.6 will be available for Ubuntu 12.04 when the Kernel is officially released?

The Ubuntu Kernel team will be providing packages of all the kernels from the next 3 Ubuntu releases for 12.04. You can get the details on that here:





These kernels will be named like this:




linux-image-current- - always points to the the most recently released kernel, e.g., 12.10, 13.04, etc.




They will be available in the package manager but by default your 12.04 installation will use 3.2.x unless you specifically install one of these kernels.



As far as 3.5 itself, you can now use the hardware enablement stack:



sudo apt-get install linux-generic-lts-quantal xserver-xorg-lts-quantal 


For all future kernel releases, you can always find the latest builds of the upstream kernel here:





However these packages are for testing and you probably shouldn't use them unless you need to or you know what you are doing.
