Installing kernel in Ubuntu is simply, given that you already have a kernel deb, a single line "apt-get install".

In the best case you'll have to unload and reload the Nvidia driver, in the worst case your driver just stops working.

In the _most common_ case (with nvidia), your graphics stops working entirely and you spend (at least) an hour in a virtual console trying to undo what you did. Fun times.

  This case ain't very common anymore, just Nvidia proprietary driver users suffer with this commonly these days. Intel and AMD don't have significant breakage when upgrading the Linux kernel.
