I can get Ubuntu mainline kernels from this kernel PPA - is there a way to add it to my repository list the same as regular Launchpad PPAs?

Small note: Installing anything but the official standard kernel for your system is not recommended. It might be unstable or buggy. Now to the topic:
This adds the daily build of ubuntu kernel (not mainline):
sudo apt-add-repository ppa:kernel-ppa/ppa
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install PACKAGENAME
You can do the same with Software Center or Synaptic using the menu item "Repositories". From there you'll need to click through some self explanatory stuff.
