@Ken Haase, here is what I do:

1. make sure you aren't running any proprietary drivers and if you are
and you can back them out (use the Software > Alternative Drivers tool
for this)

2. look back at the kernels @Joseph Salisbury has requested we test

https://launchpad.net/~canonical-kernel-
team/+archive/ubuntu/ppa/+build/11948001 (# 36)

files I used

linux-headers-4.9.0-16_4.9.0-16.17_all.deb
linux-headers-4.9.0-16-generic_4.9.0-16.17_amd64.deb
linux-image-4.9.0-16-generic_4.9.0-16.17_amd64.deb

files I used

linux-headers-4.10.0-8_4.10.0-8.10_all.deb
linux-headers-4.10.0-8-generic_4.10.0-8.10_amd64.deb

http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v4.10.11/ (# 19)

files I used

linux-headers-4.10.11-041011_4.10.11-041011.201704180310_all.deb
linux-headers-4.10.11-041011-generic_4.10.11-041011.201704180310_amd64.deb
linux-image-4.10.11-041011-generic_4.10.11-041011.201704180310_amd64.deb

3.  Basically what I do is:
  a. download the relevant group of kernel files (above)
  b. into a subdirectory that contains nothing else
  c. install as sudo dpkg -i *.deb
  d. reboot with my finger on the left shift key to bring up the grub menu
  e. select the advanced options to get the kernel I want to test
  f. when booted check with uname -a
  g. run my tests
