Before you do this, it might be worth doing some digging in the

wobble under certain conditions.. VBox for example...
VirtualBox Works.
some people have
had issues getting the latest nVidia drivers working...
latest Nvidia drivers work too.
That's why I said "under certain conditions." :-) For some people, it
works, for others VBox on a host with 2.6.36 sometimes causes the host
to reboot (as Togan has already noted)... or nVidia drivers simply
won't compile the kernel module properly. These issues have been
recently discussed on the ML here.. so at least some people have
bumped into issues with 2.6.36 on 11.3... but not everyone. Kernel
2.6.35 seemed to work for most everyone who tried it.
These issues are a good reason why it's useful to enable multi kernel
(something a really wish was either a default or much easier and
considerably more visible to enable than it is now).
