Hi Rikki!
      Here is some further detail on what you need to do.

Go to https://edge.launchpad.net/~timg-tpi/+archive/ppa/+packages to get a good view of all the packages in Tim's PPA.

Click on the name for linux - 2.6.32-22.33~lp567016 which will open details about this particular package.

At the bottom of that expansion there should be 2 choices, amd64 and i386. Select the one that is appropriate for your hardware.

This will bring you to the specific information for your particular build of the package. At the bottom of the page are all the packages that were built by Tim for this test case. I suspect that the 2 you will need are:
linux-headers-2.6.32-22-generic_2.6.32-22.33~lp567016_<i386/amd64>.deb and
linux-image-2.6.32-22-generic_2.6.32-22.33~lp567016_<i386/amd64>.deb

you will need to save these to your machine (this will probably take a while to download depending on your connection)

Instructions for installing the packages is available at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelTeam/MainlineBuilds in the section titled "Installing Mainline builds.

I'm available on IRC (as JFo) should you have any issues with the above information. :-)

Thanks!
