I don't understand what you are asking here. Do you want to upgrade to the last vanilla kernel or just to the last distribution kernel?.– Javier RiveraApr 28, 2012 at 10:21

Can you give us some context?. To wich kernel do you want to update to?. Why?. Your kernel should be updated the same way that the rest of the system.– Javier RiveraApr 28, 2012 at 10:28

run the following code:
sudo aptitude update
sudo aptitude safe-upgrade
sudo aptitude full-upgrade
If you are trying to upgrade the kernal of Ubuntu 11.10 which is in my system linux-image 3.0.0.17 to linux-image 3.2.x.x then I think 3.2.x.x is not available for Ubuntu 11.10.
If you want to do that forcefully then here what you can do:
sudo apt-add-repository ppa:francisbrwn9/kernels
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
