After a long I came to know that I have to download the Ubuntu's modified kernel version for my machine and stated trying to download but I could not download the kernel version from any of the links, so can you please provide me a link from where I can actually download the required kernel verion( source code ) of Ubuntu kernel( not the whole Ubuntu source code ) code or is there any other way that I can download the ckt3 or ckt4 patch and can install it.

In principle you can build the Ubuntu Kernel from that download.  To
understand why this did not work for you you would probabally need to
include the error that was emitted when you tried to do so?  The
packages generated should not depend on any packages with ckt in either
name or version.

Good luck.
