how do i make the system detect the new kernel? do i need to reboot? or is there any other way to do so?

You have installed the kernel source code for the new kernel. In order to use this kernel you will first have to compile the kernel. Then you will have to make an initrd. Then you will need to add the new kernel to your bootloader. Then you can reboot and select the new kernel from the bootloader menu.
I don't know if your new kernel will work on your hardware. Do you have a smp cpu? Also you might have problems running a 32 bit kernel if the rest of your software is 64 bit.
