Installing librealsense with 4.2.0-3-upboard kernel

I want to use the Intel realsense r200 camera and I also need up board pinout, so I installed the 4.2.0-3-upboard kernel. The pinout was ok but while installing Video4Linux backend used for librealsense, I encountered this error:
Picking 'linux-upboard' as source package instead of 'linux-image-4.2.0-3-upboard'
E: Unable to find a source package for linux-upboard
I tried:
sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
but it seems that it wants to upgrade the 4.4 generic kernel the since it shows:
The following NEW packages will be installed:
linux-headers-4.4.0-38 linux-headers-4.4.0-38-generic
linux-image-4.4.0-38-generic linux-image-extra-4.4.0-38-generic
linux-signed-image-4.4.0-38-generic xserver-xorg-video-mach64-lts-xenial
I don't want to use the generic kernel since up board pinout doesn't work.
Doesn't the 4.2.0-3-upboard kernel support Intel realsense cameras?

    Hi Parnia,

    Please remove any default kernel present in your system as explained here: https://up-community.org/wiki/Ubuntu#Option_1:_removing_all_-generic_kernels_.28recommended.29

    Then you can proceed with the upgrade from our PPA which will download and install the latest 4.4 UP Board kernel which also includes the header package.

    How do I upgrade to the new 4.4 up board kernel?

    I am still getting 4.2.0-3-upboard when typing "uname -r"
    I have removed the generic kernel already as well.

    I figured it out that you can manually installed it by selecting upboard-lts-xenial

    Did you manage to get realsense to work? I am still struggling to get the upboard even detecting its existence (tried both 4.2 and 4.4 kernel).

    It seems the OTG cable quality will be an issue. I hope the official OTG cable solve the problem and also ordered another superspeed adapter from ebay. I ordered two cables from ebay and none of them works with realsense.
