If you want the latest development kernel (which you should NOT use EVER

compile it yourself.
If you want the latest "reasonably stable" kernel, you can get the source
packages from Debian or Ubuntu and compile them with a simple command, OR
you can get one of the backports maintained by known Debian or Ubuntu
developers.
When I upgrade my server kernels every few months I simply wget the
latest stable from kernel.org, unpack it, read the docs, run menuconfig
and select my options, then build it with the included Debian target:
$ make KDEB_PKGVERSION=custom.1.0 deb-pkg
I test it for a week or two on one system, if all is good I install it
on the others. Most recent iteration was 3.2.6.
